Abstract:
The aim of the study was to find out the effect of circuit training on selected physiological components among women Kho-kho players. To achieve the purpose of the study thirty women Kho-kho players were selected from various departments of Bharathidasan University, Tiruchirappalli. The selected subjects age range between 21 to 23 years. The selected subjects randomly divided in to two equal groups, group I experimental group, group II control group. Each group consists of 15 subjects. Experimental Group I undergone to circuit training for 6 weeks, 6 days per week under training in the morning secessions only. Group II control group does not have any specific training other than the regular routine activities. The physiological variables such as resting pulse rate, breath holding time, Vo₂ max have been selected and pre and post test data has collected for analysis. The collected data were statistically analyzed by analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). The level of significance was fixed at 0.05 of confidence for all the cases. The experimental groups had significant improvement on all the selected physiological components when comparing to the control group.
