Abstract :

Aim of the study was to find out the effects of two different modes of aerobic dance on selected bio– motor components of University men players. The study was conducted on forty five (N=45) men players studying KSR College of Engineering and Technology, Tiruchengode, Tamilnadu, India were selected as subjects. The selected players were assigned in to three groups of fifteen each(n=15), Group I underwent Aerobic Dance with hand held weights, Group II underwent Aerobic Dance without hand held weights, and Group III acted as control. Speed and Explosive power were selected as dependent Bio Motor variables. Speed was assessed by 50 meters run test and Explosive power was assessed by Vertical Jump tests. The training period was limited to 12 weeks duration. All the subjects were tested on selected dependent variables prior to and immediately after the training periods. The data collected data from the three groups prior to and immediately after the training programme on the selected criterion variables were statistically analyzed with Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA). Whenever the �F� ratio for adjusted post test means was found to be significant, Scheffe�s post hoc test was followed to determine which of the paired mean differences was significant. In all the cases .05 level of confidence was fixed to test the hypotheses. Speed and Explosive Power showed significant difference among the groups. Aerobic dance with hand held weight group showed better performance than Aerobic dance without hand held weight group and Control group
