Abstract:
In this present study take in to account the thirty (N=30) male soccer players, members of an inter-university soccer training camp held BHU, Varanasi during the 2017-18 season. Both groups underwent similar types of training for their inter-university camp under similar environmental conditions. In addition to regular physical training for the inter-university camp, the experimental group was administered specific yogic exercises for 12 weeks, six days a week excluding Sunday. The whole exercise comprised a total of 72 working days throughout the duration of the study. For the study, selected regimen of yogic exercise for 12 weeks use as an independent variable whereas, physiological variables like forced vital capacity, peak expiratory flow, positive breath holding time, negative breath holding time, use as a dependent variable. Prior to the commencement of the twelve weeks in which the yogic training protocol was administered, the selected physiological measurements samples were taken to serve as the baseline data. Immediately after completion of 12 weeks yogic training protocol, post-test data was recorded similarly as per the standardised test and measurement procedures.
