Abstract :
The purpose of the study is to find out the significant differences on selected physiological and biochemical variables of sub junior, junior and senior athletes. A total of 60 athletes selected for the study, were grouped (n =20) into 3 groups: (i) under subjunior, junior and senior group athletes on age category basis. The physiological variables like resting heart rate and breath holding capacity and hemoglobin and uric acid as biochemical variables. The data were collected and tabulated accordingly. The One-Way ANOVA statistical technique was used to find out the significant difference between the groups. No significant difference in the resting heart rate and breath holding time as physiological variables. The hemoglobin and uric acid as biochemical variables shows insignificant differences among different categories of athletes. This study would provide useful information for training and selection of athletes of different categories of athletes.
