Abstract
Aim and Background of the Study: Professional Athletes need to have a good speed throughout his run on track. To achieve it, athletes are given training in aquatic Resistance Method and Boot Resistance Method and made to perform on ground to compare the Effectiveness of Training. The aim is to increase the endurance of athletes by giving resistance training in two Different Methods.
Methodology: This is an Experimental Study of comparative pre-test and post-test type.30 Subjects are included in the study for duration for of 8 Weeks. Subjects were divided into 2 Groups each consisting 15 subjects in Group -A&B. Group “A” were assisted with Boot Camp Training and Group “B” were assisted with Aquatic Resistance Training. The subjects were selected accordingly to the Inclusion Criteria of age Group 18-25 and Exclusion Criteria are below 18 years and above 25 years.
Result: On comparing Pre test and Post test within Group A& Group B on 40 Yard dash score Shows highly significant difference in Mean values at P ≤ 0.001.
Conclusion: The study concludes and demonstrates the benefits that boot camp training has an increasing performance variable similar to aquatic resistance training.
