Influence of pranayama before plyometric training in selected physiological variables among college level male players
Author(s): Dr. NS Gnanavel
Abstract:
The present research was designed to find out the influence of pranayama practice before plyometric training in selected physiological variables among College level male players. To achieve the purpose of the study 30 male players were selected various games from Vellore Institute of Technology, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India. The subjects was randomly assigned to two equal groups (N =15). Group-I underwent pranayama Practices before plyometric training (PPBPT) and group - II was acted as control group (CG). The pranayama practices before plyometric training was given to the experimental group for 3 days per week (Monday, Wednesday and Friday) for the period of twelve weeks. The control group was not given any sort of training except their routine work. The selected physiological variables of vital capacity (wet spirometer), resting pulse rate (radial pulse) and breath holding time (holding breath test for time) were measured. Before and after training period the data collected from the subjects was statistically analyzed with‘t’ rest to find out significant improvement if any at 0.05 level of confidence. The result of the vital capacity, resting pulse rate and breath holding time speculated significant improvement due to influence of pranayama Practices after plyometric training with the limitations of ( diet, climate, life style ) status and previous training. The result of the present study coincide findings of the investigation done by different experts in the field of sports sciences. Influence of pranayama practices before plyometric training significantly improved vital capacity, resting pulse rate and breathe holding time of male players.
