- Abstract
The purpose of this study is to enhance sports performance: the objective is to analyse the effect of aquatic training
with and without weight on selected physiological variables among volleyball players. To achieve this 60 physically
active and interested undergraduate engineering volleyball players are selected as subjects and their age ranged
between 18 and 20 years. The subjects are categorized into three groups randomly viz. Control group (CG), Aquatic
training with weight group (ATWG), Aquatic training without weight group (ATWOG) and each group comprises of 20
subjects. Control group was not exposed to any training. Both experimental groups underwent their respective
experimental treatment for 12 weeks, 3 days per week and a session on each day. Breath holding time, resting pulse
rate were taken as variables for this study. The collected data was analyzed using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA)
and Scheffee’s post hoc test. The result reveals significant differences in all the selected physiological variables among
ATWG and ATWOG pointing towards the use of aquatic training for performance improvement.
