Investigating the interplay of yogic practices and interval training on specific physiological variables among high school girls

Abstract:
The primary aim of this research was to ascertain whether notable enhancements in the efficiency of physiological and biochemical variables could be observed through the implementation of carefully selected asanas and interval training. In pursuit of this objective, the research scholar employed a meticulous random sampling method to ensure a representative cohort. The study encompassed a total of ninety female participants, thoughtfully selected from a pool of 150 students at Govt. Girls Higher Secondary School in Ta-Deori, Gondia, Nagpur, Maharashtra, with ages ranging from 12 to 15 years.
The research design employed a pre- and post-tests approach, incorporating sophisticated analysis of covariance techniques to glean nuanced insights. The results revealed that the integration of yogic practices and interval training led to statistically significant improvements in key physiological parameters, namely pulse rate, breath-holding time, and vital capacity.
Upon comparative analysis, the Experimental Group-I, focusing on yogic practices, exhibited noteworthy advancements in pulse rate, vital capacity, and breath-holding time when contrasted with the Control Group. Similarly, the Experimental Group-II, dedicated to interval training, displayed significant improvements in the same physiological variables when compared to the Control Group. Interestingly, when Experimental Group-I and Experimental Group-II were juxtaposed, Experimental Group-I exhibited no significant difference in physiological variables, while Experimental Group-II demonstrated noteworthy distinctions.
In light of these findings, it is recommended that similar studies be conducted with distinct focus on male subjects across diverse age groups. This approach would contribute to a more nuanced understanding of the nuanced effects of yogic practices and interval training on physiological variables among different demographic profiles.
