Abstract: College students often perform poorly in physical fitness tests, and the traditional physical education teaching approaches are ineffective in improving physical fitness. Functional physical fitness training focuses on the comprehensive development of various physical qualities and can improve athletic performance. This study analyzed the effects of functional physical training to understand its role in college students' performance in physical fitness tests. A total of 40 non-sports major college students from Chongqing Chemical Industry Vocational College were recruited and randomly divided into two groups for an eight-week experiment. Experimental group underwent functional physical training, while the control group underwent traditional physical training. The results of the physical fitness test and functional movement screen (FMS) were compared between the two groups and showed that the experimental group demonstrated significant improvement in both physical fitness and FMS performances, achieving a total FMS score of 17.28 ± 1.78 points (P < 0.05), except for shoulder flexibility. The control group also showed significant improvement in physical fitness test performance. However, in the FMS test, only the score for the active straight leg raise showed a significant difference (P < 0.05). The results indicated that functional physical training was more effective in improving the physical fitness of college students than traditional physical training and could be applied in practice.
