training. The subjects were hostlers and their food pattern was similar. Their life style
and living condition were not taken into consideration. They were divided into three
groups A, B and C with 10 subjects in each group. Group A was kept under control, group
B was treated with yogasana training and group C were given Swiss ball training. The
subjects of group B and C underwent training for twelve weeks with the duration of 45
minutes. The training was started at 6.30 am and it was given for 6 days a week. The pre

experimental groups when compared to the control. The training was more effective for
