Abstract :

90 (Ninety) school boys were divided into three groups i.e., two experimental groups and one control group namely conventional exercise group, yogic exercise group and control group. Motor Fitness components as dependant variables were being measured prior to the application of training stimuli (conventional exercises, yogic exercises) and after twelve weeks of application of training stimuli all the subjects of three groups were being measured to know the effect training stimuli on motor fitness. The results of the study coincided with the general conception that yogic exercises improve cardio–vascular endurance and flexibility and conventional exercises help improve speed, agility, muscular strength and endurance of the players in a progressive manner.
