Abstract:The purpose of the study is to find out the effect of varied intensities of resistance training with yoga practice on selected physical fitness variables among college male students. To achieve the purpose of the present study forty five male students were selected from various classes and departments from Meenatchi Physical Education College Thathanur, Tamil Nadu during the year 2022-2023. The age group of the subjects were between 18-23 years. They were divided into three groups, in which, Group-I (n=15) underwent low intensity resistance training with yoga practice, group-II (n=15) underwent medium intensity resistance training with yoga practice and group-III (n=15) acted as control, who did not participate any special training apart from their regular routine activities. The subjects were tested on selected criterion variables such as shoulder muscular strength and cardio-respiratory endurance at prior to and immediately after the training period. For testing the shoulder muscular strength and cardio-respiratory endurance was measured by push-ups test and Cooper 12 minutes run/walk test respectively. The analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used to find out the significant difference if any, between the experimental groups and control group on selected criterion variables separately. Since there were three groups involved in the present study, the Scheffĕ S test was used as post-hoc test. The result of the study shows that there was a significant improvement in shoulder muscular strength and cardio-respiratory endurance after the low intensity resistance training with yogic practice and medium intensity resistance training with yogic practice.
