Abstract:

The purpose of the study was to find out the effect of plyometric training and SAQ running on selected physical fitness variables among college male kabaddi players. To achieve the purpose of the present study, forty five male kabaddi players from Affiliated Colleges of Bharathidasan University, Tiruchirappalli, Tamilnadu, India were selected as subjects at random and their ages ranged from 19 to 23 years. Experimental Group I was exposed to plyometric training, Experimental Group II was exposed to SAQ training and Control Group underwent no training. The duration of experimental period was 12 weeks. After the experimental treatment, all the forty five subjects were tested on their selected physical fitness and physiological parameters. 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 SAQ training had shown better performance on speed than the plyometric training and control group. In case of back and leg strength bothe the experimental groups produced similar effect.
