A qualified physician examined the subjects medically and declared that they were fit to undergo the training programme. Nelson Hand and Foot Reaction test executed correctly to access the Reaction time. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was computed (Clarke & Clarke, 1972) for the data collected from the control and experimental groups during pretest and posttest separately for each variable. Further, since three groups were involved, whenever the ‘F’ ratio was significant, Scheffé S post hoc test was used to determine which of the paired mean differed significantly.
