Abstract :

The purpose of the study was to determine find out the isolated and combined effect of Sumba Dance and Aerobic Training on Blood Sugar of high altitude college women students. For this study, sixty (N=60) women students studying Mahatha Gandhi University College of Teachers Education, Kumily, Kerala were selected as subjects. The subjects were divided at random into four groups of fifteen in each (n=15). Group–I underwent Sumba Dance, Group–II underwent Aerobic Training, Group–III underwent Combined Sumba Dance and Aerobic Training and Group –IV was as the Control group. The training period was limited to three days per week for twelve weeks. The dependent variable selected for this study was Blood Sugar. All the subjects were tested prior to and immediately after the experimental period on the Blood Sugar. The data obtained from the experimental groups before and after the experimental period were statistically analyzed with and Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). Whenever the ‘F’ ratio for adjusted post test means was found to be significant, the Scheffe’s Post hoc test was applied to determine the paired mean differences. The level of confidence was fixed at 0.05 level for all the variables. The experimental groups, namely Sumba Dance group, Aerobic Training and Combined Sumba Dance and Aerobic Training group have shown significant decrease in blood sugar.
