ABSTRACT:
A major goal in healthcare is to increase life expectancy and eminently improve healthy and happy aging by compressing morbidity into a shorter period in a later stage of the lifespan. Resting heart rate (RHR) is positively related with mortality. Regular exercise causes a reduction in Resting heart rate. It’s a decent parameter of cardiovascular capability and healthiness of an individual. Lower heart rate in resting state is an indicator of sound health and physiological condition. Sports training might be helpful to have lower heart rate at resting and after exercise conditions (Sil P.) The purpose of the present study was an endeavor to the best method of handling resting heart ratewhich is one of the physiological attributes. Out of 96 selected participants from fluvio coastal zone of west Bengal, India on the basis of BMI, 80 under graduate physical education male students (average age:20) were consider for the study. The subjects were divided into four groups (20 for each group) randomly namely Weight Training Group (WTG), Aerobic Training Group (ATG), Graded Circuit Training Group (GCTG) and Control Group (CG). Separately designed 12 weeks training programme for WTG, ATG and GCTG was applied on the subjects at morning between 8.00 am to 9.15am for three alternative days per week. After every four weeks, total load was increased. Pre and post-test on the groups were conducted to measure the training effect on resting heart rate. The collected data were statistically analyzed by using the analysis of Co-variance (p<0.05) to determine differences, the LSD test was applied as a post hoc test to find out the paired mean differences. From the obtaining result, it was concluded that weight training, aerobics and graded circuit training are found to be effective for improving the resting heart rate of under graduate physical education male students.
