Abstract:
To achieve this purpose of the study, thirty male students were selected randomly from Selvam Educational Institutions, Namakkal, Tamilnadu, India. The selected subjects were divided into two groups of fifteen each. Group-I underwent assisted sprint training programme for eight weeks and acted as experimental group. Group-II acted as control group to find out the influence of assisted sprint training programme. The data collected from two groups prior to and after experimentation on stride length, stride frequency, resting pulse rate and vital capacity were statistically examined for significant differences, if any, by applying the analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) with the help of SPSS package. In determining the significance of „F‟ ratio the confidence interval was fixed at 0.05 level, which is considered appropriate enough for the study. It was concluded that the selected speed and physiological parameters namely stride length, stride frequency, resting pulse rate and vital capacity have altered significantly due to eight weeks of assisted sprint training.
