This study aimed to investigate the effect of aerobic circuit training on muscle resistance, cardiorespiratory endurance, and archery accuracy. The study was conducted using the one-group pretest-posttest design. The research subject of was 11 archery athletes of Selabora FIK UNY (Sports Laboratory School of Faculty of Sport Sciences at the Yogyakarta State University). The data were analyzed using the t-test with a significance level of 5%. The results of the analysis of the athletes’ muscle resistance showed that the t-count value (13.124) was higher than the t-table value (2.28); the results of the analysis of the athletes’ cardiorespiratory endurance showed that the t-count value (3.964) was higher than the t-table value (2.28); and the results of analysis of the archery accuracy showed that the t-count value (7.807) was higher than the t-table value (2.28). Since the t-count was higher than the t-table, the hypothesis was accepted and suggests that there is an effect of aerobic circuit training on muscle resistance, cardiorespiratory endurance, and accuracy among the archery athletes in Selabora FIK UNY. Thus, it can be concluded that aerobic circuit training has an effect on archery athletes’ muscle resistance, cardiorespiratory endurance, and accuracy.
