Description
The purpose of the study was to find out the effect of different intensity of step aerobics training on Speed and Cardiorespiratory Endurance among school girls. For this purpose, sixty (60) girls aged between 15 to 17 were randomly selected from the Kannagi Government Girls Higher Secondary School, Villianur, Puducherry, India as subjects. The Training programme was designed for 12 weeks and Experimental group I (n=20) underwent step aerobics with 4 inches step height, Experimental group II (n=20) underwent step aerobics with 8 inches step height for weekly 5 days, 45-60 minutes/day and group III (n=20) acted as control group. Step aerobics is treated as Independent Variable. Speed and Cardio respiratory endurance were selected as motor fitness variables. Pre test and Post test were conducted on selected dependent variables. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was applied to find out the effect of different intensity of step aerobics training on Speed and Cardiorespiratory Endurance among School Girls. The Scheffe’s post hoc method was used for testing the significance between paired adjusted means. The level of significance was 0.05. The results of the study showed that speed and Cardio respiratory endurance had significantly improved the Experimental group II than the Experimental group I and the control group.
