Abstract:
The purpose of the study was to find out insulate and assimilate effect of ballistic training and yogic practice on selected physiological variables of male cricket players. To achieve the purpose of the study, sixty (60) cricket players who participated in the inter collegiate tournament affiliated to Periyar University, Salem in the state of Tamil Nadu, India during the year 2023 - 2024 were selected as subjects. The age of the subjects ranged from 18 to 25 years. The selected players were randomly selected and assigned into four groups of fifteen subjects each (n = 15). Group I underwent ballistic training (BTG), group II underwent yogic practice (YPG), group III underwent combined ballistic training and yogic practice (CBTYPG) and group IV acted as control group (CG), they were not assigned any specific training. The selected physiological variables such as vital capacity and resting pulse rate were selected criterion variables. The experimental groups underwent their respective training programs for the duration of 12 weeks on alternative days, three days per week in addition to their regular programme in their curriculum design. All the subjects were tested prior to and immediately after the training for the entire selected variable. Data were collected and statistically analyzed using paired samples ‘t’ test and ANCOVA. If the obtained f ratio found to be significant, the Scheffe’s post hoc test was applied to determine the significant difference between the paired means. In all the cases 0.05 level of significance was fixed. It was concluded that 12 weeks combined ballistic training and yogic practice package significantly improved the vital capacity and resting pulse rate of male cricket players.
