The applied tests to the subjects are from the Eurofit test battery. Descriptive statistics were calculated based on the collected data, while ANOVA and correlation were used. Through the program applied during the 12 weeks it is observed that not all fitness components have been improved in the same way. The statistical significance of 0.05 threshold at ANOVA test was obtained for the plate tapping and handgrip test. And concerning the correlation, in 7 cases it indicated a high and very high value, while in 3 cases the value was low, being similar to other previous studies. The limitations of the study are given by the number of participants, but open the way to make other such studies involving more subjects, to be conducted on a longer term and using a more diverse palette of meanings to determine the influence on the fitness components for young and students.
