COMBINED EFFECT OF CIRCUIT AND MOBILITY TRAINING ON SELECTED PHYSICAL VARIABLES AMONG COLLEGE MEN VOLLE BALL PLAYERS

Abstract

The purpose of the study was to find out the effect of combined effect of circuit and mobility training on selected physical variables among college men volleyball players. To achieve this purpose, forty-five men volleyball players in the age group of 18 to 23 years from various department of Jammu University during the year 2019-2020 were selected as subjects. The selected forty-five subjects were divided into three equal groups of fifteen each as two experimental groups and one control group, in which group – I (n=15) underwent Circuit training for three days per week for six weeks, group – II (n=15) underwent the combination of mobility and circuit training for three days per week for six weeks and group – III (n=15) acted as control who did not participate any training apart from their regular activities. The selected criterion variables such as speed, explosive power and flexibility were assessed before and after the training period. Speed, explosive power and flexibility were measured by 50 meters dash, standing broad jump and sit and reach test.   The collected data were statistically analyzed by using Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) and Scheff’s Post-Hoc Test. From the results of the study, it was found that there was a significant difference when compared with the control group.
