Abstract :
The purpose of the study was to find out the effect of yogic packages and mobility training on selected bio-chemical variables among volleyball players. To achieve the purpose of the present study, sixty men volleyball players from Kanyakumari district, Tamilnadu, India were selected as subjects at random and their ages ranged from 18 to 25 years. The subjects were divided into three equal groups of twenty players each. Experimental Group I was exposed to yogic packages, Experimental Group II was exposed to mobility training and Control Group was not exposed to any experimental training other than their regular daily activities. The duration of experimental period was 12 weeks. 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 yogic packages group had shown significant improvement in all the selected bio-chemical variables among volleyball players after undergoing yogic packages for a period of twelve weeks. The mobility training group had shown significant improvement in all the selected bio-chemical variables among volleyball players after undergoing mobility training for a period of twelve weeks.
