Dr. M. Shanthi

Abstract :

 The present study was to investigate the influence of yogic practices and aerobic exercises responses on forced vital capacity parameter among women school teachers. To achieve this purpose of the study sixty (N=30) working women’s were selected from school teachers, Karaikudi, Tamil Nadu state, India, during the year 2016–17. The subject’s age ranges from 25 to 35 years. The selected subject were divided into three equal groups consists of ten subject each namely two experimental groups and control group from school women teachers. The experimental group I underwent yogic practices group (YPG) and experimental group II underwent aerobic exercise group (AEG) programme for six weeks. The control group was not taking part in any exercise during the course of the study. The dependent variable forced vital capacity parameter selected for the study, it was measured by Spiro meter test unit of ml .Pre–test was taken before the exercise period and post– test was measured immediately after the six weeks exercise period. The data collected from the three groups were statistically analyzed for significance, the analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used and the F ratio was found out. The Scheffe’s test is applied as post–hoc test to determine the paired mean differences. The level of significance will be fixed at .05 level of confidence for all the cases. These results suggest that both yogic practices group and aerobic exercise group improve forced vital capacity level.
