Abstract:

Purpose: The Purpose of the study was to find out the comparative effect of static and dynamic core exercise training on vital capacity. Selection of Subjects: For the present study 45 male students from Department of Physical Education, GGV Bilaspur (C.G) were selected randomly as the subjects for the study. The age of the subjects ranged between 20-25 years. Selection of Variables: The variables selected for the present study were static and dynamic core exercise training as independent variable, vital capacity as dependent variable. Methodology: For the study pretest – posttest randomized group design, which consists of control group (15 students) and two experimental group’s i.e. static and dynamic core exercise group (30 students) were used. The data were collected through the pretest, before training and posttest, after twelve weeks of static and dynamic core exercise training. Statistical Technique: To find out the comparative effect of static and dynamic core exercise training on vital capacity of the subjects the pretest and post test scores were analyzed by using Descriptive analysis, Analysis of Co-Variance (ANCOVA) and LSD test were used, the data analyzed with the help of SPSS (21.0 version) software and the level of significance was set at 0.05 level of confidence. Result: The result of the study showed that there was significant difference between pre and posttest (experimental group) of vital capacity. Significant difference was found between adjusted means of dynamic core exercise training and control group (p< 0.05). Conclusion: On the basis of findings of the study it may be considered that dynamic core exercise training could be very much useful method of training for sportsman to improve vital capacity.
