Pull–ups and push–ups and was recorded in the numbers. Abdominal strength was measured by bent knee sit– ups and was recorded in numbers. To find out the effect of strength training exercises on selected physical variables, dependent‘t’ test was applied and the level of significance was set at the 0.05. The study indicates that six week of strength training, increase muscular strength.
