Introduction: The current study is on how 12 weeks of strength training impacts several physiological features in elite basketball players. The New Public School, Sec-18, and Sri Guru Harkrishan Model School, Sec-38, both in Union Territory Chandigarh, each had twenty basketball players recruited at random. Students' ages varied from 16 to 19. Each team contained 10 participants, and they were distributed equally between the strength training and control groups.

Method: This research used a completely random group design. The Strength training group's workouts were planned for 1.5 hours twice a week (on Tuesdays and Fridays). The control group was not allowed to take part in any of the training programmes beyond the normal, everyday practice they were already engaged in. Pulse rate at rest, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, respiratory rate at rest, and peak expiratory flow rate were the physiological variables used for the research.

Results: The ’t’ test was calculated using SPSS with a significance threshold of 0.05 to examine the mean difference between the pre- and post-tests. Measures of cardiovascular health, including heart rate, blood pressure, and respiratory rate at rest, showed statistically significant improvement between the pre- and post-test periods.

Conclusion: It has been concluded that strength training has a positive effect on the physiological variables. Physiological variables in the control group showed no significant change between the pre- and post-test. Therefore, athletes should make this exercise a regular component of their schedules.
