D. Saranya, R. Gopinath

Abstract :

The purpose of the study was to find out the influence of circuit training and interval training on resting heart rate among women cricket players. Forty five women cricket players were randomly selected subject from studying in Annamalai University, India and their age ranged between 20 and 24 years. The selected subjects were divided into three groups with fifteen subjects in each group. Group I underwent circuit training, Group II underwent interval training and Group III served as control. During the training period the two experimental groups’ underwent their respective training program for 12 weeks and the training programs were carried out for about from 45 to 60 minutes per day. A physiological analysis was resting heart rate to find out the significant effect of the training programs on women cricket players. The data collected from the three groups before and after the experimental training period and statistically examined using the analysis of covariance. The level of significance confidence was fixed at 0.05. The results of the study shows that 12–weeks of training program have significantly decreased on resting heart rate level due to circuit training and interval training. However, interval training was found to be better than circuit training in reduced on resting heart rate level.
