The experimental group–1 (n=10, AT) and experimental group–2 (n=10, JRT) received aerobic training and jump rope training respectively for six weeks, five days a week. Body composition was measured by BMI– observations the score recorded in percentage (%). Results: After 6 weeks, the aerobic training and jump rope training groups demonstrated significant reduction by 0.03% and 0.02% respectively rather than the control group. Conclusion: The Percentage (%) of the body composition was greater reduced onaerobic training than the jump rope training.
