Abstract

Ninety boys in the age group of 15 to 18 years of K.M.H.S.S Kottakkal School, Kerala were selected at random and were divided randomly into three equal groups namely Progressive training group –A with weights, Progressive training group –B without weights and control group -C. The experimental groups participated in the training programme for a period of 15 weeks. During this period, the control group was let off without any training. The data were collected on selected Physical Fitness variables of Flexibility and maximal heart rate respectively before training (pre-test) as well as after 12 weeks of training (post-test). Analysis of covariance was used to analyze the data. The results of the study clearly indicated that experimental group without weights (B) showed significant improvement in flexibility, maximal heart rate and control group made no progress at all.
