The study focuses on identifying the muscles engaged during these exercises by actively performing them. The target population of “Maharashtriya Mandal” who engage in regular exercise. Using a purposive sampling technique, individuals with a basic understanding of human anatomy were selected as participants. The study employed descriptive survey methods along with data collection tools such as feedback on muscle (i.e. Checklist), observation to identify the muscles involved in these exercises. By integrating anatomical perspectives, this research aims to provide valuable insights into the biomechanics and physiological effects of traditional Indian exercises.
