IMPACTS OF COMPLEX WITH SAQ TRAINING ON CARDIO RESPIRATORY ENDURANCE AND RESTING PULSE RATE AMONG VOLLEYBALL PLAYERS

Abstract

The rationale of the study was to find out the impacts of complex with SAQ training on cardio respiratory endurance and resting pulse rate among volleyball players. To achieve this purpose, thirty men volleyball players were selected as subjects, their aged between 21 to 25 years, they are studying in the Agricultural College and Research institute, Eachangkottai, Thanjavur, Tamilnadu. The selected subjects were divided into two equal groups of fifteen subjects each, namely Complex with SAQ training group and control group. The selected subjects had undergone the Complex with SAQ training for twelve weeks, with three days per week in alternate days. The Complex with SAQ training group trained for three sets per exercise per session at 60 to 80% with a progressive increase in load with the number of weeks. Cardio respiratory endurance and resting pulse rate were selected as criterion variables and they were tested by using cooper’s 12 minutes run and walk test and radial pulse rate respectively. ANCOVA was used to find out the significant difference if any between the groups. The results of the study showed that there was a significant difference on Cardio respiratory endurance and resting pulse rate between complex training with SAQ training group and control group.
