Abstract :

The aim of the study was to investigate the comparative effect of varied aerobic training programme on selected Physiological variables namely Resting heart rate, Resting Systolic blood pressure, resting Diastolic blood pressure and Body fat percentage of Tribal and Non–Tribal adolescent school boys. For the purpose of the study 120 students each in tribal and non–tribal category were selected total 240 subjects (120 tribal and 120 non–tribals). The age group of the subjects was ranged from 14–16 years. They were selected randomly. The subjects were further sub–divided into six equal groups consisting of 20 subjects in each. Three experimental groups namely slow continuous, Fartlek, Interval running group and one control group in each category (Tribal and Non–Tribal). The Physiological variables namely Resting Heart rate was measured through Resting heart rate in terms of number of heart beats recorded per minute during resting condition, at the radical artery, Resting systolic blood pressure measured by sphygmomanometer recorded in mm / Hg , Resting diastolic blood pressure measured by sphygmomanometer recorded in mm / Hg and Body fat percentage obtained after taking skin fold measurements at four selected sites namely biceps, triceps, sub – scapula and supra – iliac and total volume of four sites compared to the ready reckoner prepared by Durnin and Rehaman. For the comparison, analysis of covariance was used and the significant level was set at 0.05 level of confidence. The results revels significant differences of means in both tribal and non–tribal group of experimental category.
