Effect of Integrated Yoga Modules with and without Satvic Diet on Selected Physical Variables among College Female Students

Abstract :

The purpose of the study was to find out the effect of integrated yoga modules with and without satvic food on selected physical variables among college female students. To achieve the purpose of the present study, sixty college female students from Dhanalakshmi Srinivasan Group of Institutions, Perambalur, Tamilnadu, India were selected as subjects at random and their ages ranged from 18 to 21 years. The subjects were divided into three equal groups of twenty each. Group I acted as Experimental Group I (Integrated Yoga Module), Group II acted as Experimental Group II (Integrated Yoga Module with Satvic Diet) Group III acted as Control Group. The requirement of the experiment procedures, testing as well as exercise schedule was explained to the subjects so as to get full co-operation of the effort required on their part and prior to the administration of the study. Pre test was conducted for all the subjects on selected physical variables. This initial test scores formed as pre test scores of the subjects. The groups were assigned as Experimental Group I, Experimental Group II and Control Group in an equivalent manner. Experimental Group I was exposed to integrated yoga module, Experimental Group II was exposed to integrated yoga module with satvic diet and Control Group was not exposed to any experimental training other than their regular daily activities. The duration of experimental period was 12 weeks. After the experimental treatment, all the sixty subjects were tested on their physical variables. This final test scores formed as post test scores of the subjects. The pre test and post test scores were subjected to statistical analysis using Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) to find out the significance among the mean differences, whenever the ‘F’ ratio for adjusted test was found to be significant, Scheffe’s post hoc test was used. In all cases 0.05 level of significance was fixed to test hypotheses. The integrated yoga modules group had shown significant improvement in all the elected physical variables among college female students after undergoing integrated yoga modules for a period of twelve weeks. The integrated yoga modules with satvic diet group had shown significant improvement in all the elected physical variables among college female students after undergoing integrated yoga modules with satvic diet for a period of twelve weeks. The integrated yoga modules with satvic diet group had shown significant improvement in all the elected physical variables among college female students than the integrated yoga module and control group.
