The paper used analysis and generalization of data of scientific and methodological literature, pedagogical testing and methods of mathematical statistics for processing research results. The study materials were processed by the IBM SPSS 23 statistical analysis software. The following parameters were calculated: arithmetic mean (X); standard deviation (s). The probability of difference in statistical indicators was estimated using the&nbsp;<em>Student's t</em>-test.</p><p><strong>Results.&nbsp;</strong>The analysis of the study results showed that after 1-3 circuit training classes, the girls in the experimental group demonstrate a statistically significant, but slight improvement of results in the set of tests (p&lt;0.05). After 1-3 classes of combined training, the experimental group girls show a statistically significant improvement in the results of strength and strength endurance of shoulder muscles, abdominal and back muscles, leg muscles (p&lt;0.05). The comparison between the levels of strength preparedness of the control group girls and experimental group girls after the experiment revealed that the experimental group girls demonstrate statistically significantly better results of strength and strength endurance of shoulder muscles, abdominal and back muscles, leg muscles (p&lt;0.05).</p><p><strong>Conclusions.&nbsp;</strong>When using 1-3 circuit training classes and 1-3 combined training classes in a 2-week training cycle, the middle-school-aged girls show a positive dynamics of strength and strength endurance development of shoulder muscles, abdominal and back muscles, leg muscles. The method of circuit training is effective to develop general and local strength endurance, the dynamics of strength of the local muscle group is strongly influenced by the combined training.</p> ER -
