        High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) is a type of exercise that alternates between short&#xD;
        bursts of high and low intensity activity. The physical components may be improved very&#xD;
        effectively and efficiently with this kind of training. The choice of an effective practice&#xD;
        strategy could be very beneficial because boosting an athlete's performance is correlated&#xD;
        with improving their physical components. The significance of this study was that HIIT is&#xD;
        helpful in increasing strength, endurance and agility. Thus it could be useful for athletes&#xD;
        for their physical fitness in less duration as compared to the conventional protocols.&#xD;
