The training with weights or the training with mass became one of the most known exercise both the athletes' performance and improved the no athletes' physical conditions. The aim of this study is to compare the effects of the localized (callisthenic) gymnastic training (LGT) and weight lifting (WT) on no athletes women. There were 48 women assessed-25 of them practiced localized gymnastic training (LGT) and 23 practiced weight lifting (WT), within age bracket from 20 to 37 years old. The volunteers should have been practicing their activities since six months before and they could not practice the two activities simultaneously. All of them were submitted for the Push-up Test and abdominal fl exion Test according to Pollock's; Wilmore's protocol (1993). Through Mann-Whitney's test there was a statistically signifi cant difference, α= 5% to the variant Push-up. Then results were coherent with the expectations, because the Push-up is a basic exercise to LG. So, there is an index that LG may present a differentiated impact from weight lifting training to convergent variables with the specifi city of the modality.
