M. Prabu

Abstract :

To achieve the purpose of the present study (N=30) college men players were randomly selected from Sri Ramakrishna Mission Vidyalaya maruthi college of physical education and Vivekananda University faculty of general and adapted physical education and yoga, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu. Their age ranged from 18 to 25 years. They were assigned to two groups namely experimental group–I with (n=15) boys who were given kalaripayatu training for 12 weeks 5 days a week and other group–II with (n=15) acted as control group. The experimental group was tested on bio variables namely speed and cardio respiratory endurance. The selected criterion variable was speed measured with 50 m dash and cardio respiratory endurance was measured with 12 min run/walk. The prior and after test data were collected and treated with Dependent ‘t’ test. The level of confidence was fixed at 0.05. The study results showed that the experimental group significantly increased cardio respiratory endurance and speed due to kalaripayatu training programme. The control group did not alter on selected bio motor variables.
