Abstract

Proper and targeted training can dramatically improve an athlete's performance by increasing various physical qualities. In most sporting events and tournaments, performance in physical and motor aspects such as speed, power, agility, balance, endurance, and coordination contribute to achieving challenging and sophisticated abilities. Strength and power are essential for athletic performance. Daily physical activity increases muscle strength, endurance, agility, speed, balance, and coordination, all of which serve as the foundation for all physical processes in the human body. Participating in daily physical exercises promotes good growth and health. Running, jumping, throwing, climbing, and hanging has been the main motor motion patterns throughout history. For the present study, an experimental method was taken to see the effect of asanas on engineering students' selected physiological and motor fitness variables. The study was formulated as an authentic experimental design, consisting of a pre-test and a post-test. The subjects (n=60) were assigned to three equal groups of twenty students. The groups were assigned as Experimental Groups I and control groups, respectively. Pre-tests were conducted for all the subjects on selected motor fitness and physiological variables such as muscular strength, explosive power, cardio-respiratory endurance, and flexibility. The Control group of students had no significant change in their muscular strength, explosive power, cardio-respiratory endurance and flexibility even after 12 weeks. The treatment of yogasana significantly affected engineering students' motor fitness variables. Yogasanas have no significant effect on the muscular strength of engineering students; Yogasanas have no significant effect on the explosive power of engineering students. Yogasanas played a significant effect in the cardiorespiratory endurance of engineering students. Yogasanas played a significant effect in the flexibility of engineering students.
