Abstract:
The purpose of the study is to find out the impact of core with speed training on inspiratory reserve volume, expiratory reserve volume among male kabaddi players. To achieve the purpose of the present study thirty male kabaddi players studying in various departments and colleges of Dhanalakshmi Srinivasan group of institutions, Perambalur, Tamil Nadu, in the age group of 18 - 25 years were selected as subjects. They were divided into three groups, in which, Group - I (n=15) underwent core with speed training, group – II (n=15) acted as control, who did not participate any special training apart from their regular routine activities. Prior to and after the exercises period the subjects were tested for inspiratory reserve volume and expiratory reserve volume. Inspiratory reserve volume and expiratory reserve volume was measured by Wet spirometer. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was applied to know the significant mean difference between experimental and control group on inspiratory reserve volume and expiratory reserve volume. It is concluded that twelve weeks of core with speed training showed an impact on inspiratory reserve volume and expiratory reserve volume in experimental group.
