TITLE:

Comparison of Plyometric Training and Circuit Resistance Training on Physical Fitness Parameters and Mental Health in School Going Children.

 

INTRODUCTION:

Exercise is a subset of physical activity that is planned, structured repetitive and purposeful which might affect individuals mental health based on constituent elements. Physical fitness plays an important role for maintenance, development and improvement of children’s life. Physical Fitness is an essential indicator of health of children and also good predictor of health in later life. Mental Health is “state of mental well-being that enables people to cope with the stresses of life, realize their abilities, learn well and work well and contribute to their community. Plyometrics training is having beneficial likewise notably improvements in vertical and horizontal jump performances, running speed, agility, change of direction speed, balance, ability and endurance adaptations in children. Circuit Resistance Training is method of physical conditioning that employed both apparatus resistance and calisthenics conditioning exercise.

 

 

 

AIM OF THE STUDY:

The aim of the study is to compare plyometric training and circuit resistance training on physical fitness parameters and mental health in school going children.

 

METHODOLOGY:

·       Ethical approval was taken from Institutional Research and Ethics Committee prior to conducting the study.

·       All participants were assessed as per the evaluation format. Those who fulfilled the inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria were taken up for the study.

·       They were randomly divided into two groups by cheat method.

·       Written and oral assent of the parents of participants was taken prior to study.

·       All participants were assessed with JCR score and GHQ12 prior to starting of training sessions and after week 4 weeks of training post score was measured.

 

RESULT:

The result was analysed using paired t test and Wilcoxon for within group analysis, and Mann Whitney U test for between group analysis of pre and post data of Circuit Resistance Training and Plyometric Training. Both Group A and B showed significant difference (p < 0.05) in within group analysis for vertical jump, chin ups and GHQ12 while for shuttle run only Group B showed significant difference. Both Group A and B did not show any significant difference for vertical jumps, chin ups, shuttle run and GHQ12 in between group analysis.

CONCLUSION:

This study concludes that, there is an improvement in both the groups who performed Plyometric Training and Circuit Resistance Training.

 

 Physical fitness parameters i.e. explosive power of legs, muscular strength and mental health showed improvement in both Circuit Resistance Training Group and Plyometric Training Group while for agility only Circuit Resistance Training Group showed more improvement than Plyometric Training.

 

KEYWORDS:

Circuit Resistance Training, Plyometric Training, Physical Fitness, Mental Health, School Going Children.
