Impacts of yogic practices with and without aerobics training on bio chemical and physiological variables among male college students
AUTHOR(S): Dr. Shejin KV and Dr. Rajesh C
ABSTRACT:
The present investigation was to find out the impacts of yogic practices with and without aerobics training on biochemical and physiological variables among male college students. Sixty individuals from Govt. Engineering College Thrissur, Kerala, aged between 18 to 22 years, were selected for the study. They were divided into three equal groups (n = 20): Group I underwent yogic practices, Group II practiced yogic practices with aerobics, and Group III served as the control group without any specific training. The training regimen lasted three days a week for twelve weeks. The selected bio chemical variables such as low density lipoprotein (LDL), high density lipoprotein (HDL), fasting blood glucose and physiological variables such as VO2 max, systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure were tested before and after the training period.

The training regimen lasted three days a week for twelve weeks. The selected bio chemical variables such as low density lipoprotein (LDL), high density lipoprotein (HDL), fasting blood glucose and physiological variables such as VO2 max, systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure were tested before and after the training period.
Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was employed to determine any significant differences among the experimental groups and the control group regarding the selected variables. Additionally, the Scheffe’s test was utilized as a post-hoc test due to the involvement of three groups in the study. The findings indicated that both yogic practices with and without aerobics training positively influenced the criterion variables of speed, agility, muscular strength & endurance, VO2 max, systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure among college male students compared to the control group. However, no significant difference was observed between the training groups themselves.
