Abstract :

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of six week Plyometric training and aerobic exercises on vo2 max parameter among college men students. To achieve the purpose of the study thirty college men students were selected from Alagappa University College of Physical Education, Karaikudi during the year 2019–20. The subject’s age ranges from 18 to 25 years. The selected players were divided into three equal groups consists of 10 men students each namely experimental group–I, experimental group–II and control group. The experimental group–I underwent aqua aerobic exercise and experimental group–II underwent aerobic exercises for six weeks. The control group was not taking part in any exercise during the course of the study. The dependent variable vo2 max was taken as criterion variables and they were tested by using cooper vo2 max test for this study .Pre–test was taken before the exercise period and post– test was measured immediately after the six weeks of training period. Statistical technique ‘f’ ratio was used to analyze the means of the pre–test and post test data of experimental groups and control group. The data were analyzed analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) technique was used with 0.05 levels as confidence. Analysis was performed using SPSS 20.0 (SPSS Inc Software). The results revealed that there was a significant difference found on the criterion variables. The difference found is due to Plyometric training and aerobic exercises groups when compare better than the control group on vo2 max.
