Aim of the study. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of resistance circuit training and psychological techniques on archery accuracy at distances of 50, 40, and 30 meters. This research was conducted as a quasi-experimental study using a matching-only design. Subjects were divided into two groups: (K1) athletes trained with mental imagery and circuit training using equipment, and (K2) athletes trained with mental imagery and circuit training without equipment. The intervention lasted for six weeks, with training sessions three times per week. Results. The findings of this study indicated significant differences between pre-test and post-test results in both groups (K1 and K2) (p < 0.05). The conclusion of this study suggests that resistance circuit training, both with and without equipment, combined with mental imagery training, can enhance archery accuracy. It is recommended that this type of training be incorporated into athletes` training programs. Future research should explore the integration of various training programs with more diverse and dynamic exercises.
