Abstract :
The analysis of the research paper is to evaluate the effects of sprint training with meditation practice on the
development of agility of school level elites printers. The sixty school boys sprinters are selected from Govt, High School, Dibbur, Chickballapur, Karnataka and they were equally allotted in groups. Group –I sprint training (n=15), Group –II sprint training with meditation practice (n=15), and Group –III control group (n=15). The intention was to evaluate the agility in Illinois agility test, as measured before and after a six-week training period. The subjects in each training groups were trained 2 days per week, whereas control group subjects did not participate in any training activity. The data were analyzed by t ratio, analysis of variance, analysis of co-variance, and Scheffe’s post hoc test. The results showed that all the training treatments elicited significant (P<0.05) improvement in all of the tested variables of agility. However, the pranayama with sprint training showed significant improvement on agility (sprint with pranayana and control group). This study provided support for the use of a sprint training with meditation training method to improve agility.
