Effect Of Isolated And Combined Game Specific Circuit And Trx Suspension Band Training On Selected Physiological Parameters Of Handball Players

The rationale for this research was to determine the isolated and combined effect of game specific circuit and TRX suspension band training on selected physiological parameters of Handball players. To accomplish the reason for the examination 60 handball players from St. Aloysius College Thrissur, Aquinas College Edakochi, Christ College, Thrissur were chosen as subjects and their age extends between 18 to 23 years. They were divided into four equal groups by random sampling method. Group-I acted as Experimental Group-I – isolated game specific circuit Training, Group-II acted as Experimental Group II – isolated TRX suspension band training, Group-III acted as Experimental Group III – combined training and Group – IV acted as Control. The training duration for all three groups was restricted to 12 weeks (3days/week). The Vo2max and forced vital capacity were preferred as dependent variables. The data collected from the experimental and control groups on selected dependent variables was statistically analyzed by paired ‘t’ test. Additionally, percentage of changes was also calculated. Further, the data were statistically analyzed to find out the significant difference if any, by applying the analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). Whenever the obtained ‘F’ ratio value was found to be significant for adjusted post test means, the Scheffe’s test was applied as post hoc test. In all the cases the level of confidence was fixed at 0.05 level for significance. In response to game specific circuit, TRX suspension band and combined training men handball player’s Vo2max and forced vital capacity were improved significantly.
