Abstract :
The purpose of this investigation is to examine the impact of cardio-respiratory endurance training, resistance training and core strength training on selected physiological variables among college athletes. To achieve the purpose of this study 50 male athletes were selected from various Colleges in Coimbatore who had represented their college level athletic competition. The subjects were selected in to the age group of 18 to 25 years. Experimental group-I underwent cardio-respiratory endurance training. Experimental group-II underwent resistance training. Experimental group-III underwent core strength training. Experimental group-IV underwent combined cardio-respiratory endurance, resistance and core strength training. Control group (group-IV) was restricted to participate in any specific training programme. The training regimen lasted for twelve weeks for 3 days per week and 1 session of 90 minutes in the morning. The selected dependent variables were assessed using standard tests and procedures, before and after the training regimen. Analysis of covariance was used to determine the significant difference existing between pretest and posttest data on selected dependent variables. The analysis of data revealed that due to the impact of twelve weeks of cardio-respiratory endurance training, resistance training, core strength training and combined training the selected physiological variables of college athletes have significantly changed.
