EFFECT OF 12 WEEKS OF BRISK WALKING PROGRAMME ON ABDOMINAL MUSCULAR STRENGTH AND ENDURANCE OF SEDENTARY COLLEGE STUDENTS
Dr.K.M.Valsaraj
The purpose of the present study is to find out effect of 12 weeks of brisk walking programme on abdominal muscular strength and endurance of sedentary college students. The sample was consisted of thirty (N 30) sedentary college students and their age ranged between 18-25 years of age .the subjects were briefed in details about the study. The criterion measures for the study was abdominal muscular strength and endurance and it was measured by modified sit-ups and scores recorded correctly executed sit-ups performed in 60 seconds. . The total research period was of 12 weeks out of which six (6 weeks) of brisk walking programme was employed. Mean difference was found in case first observation and second observation (MD=0.67, p=0.157), whereas significant difference is found in second and third observation (MD=4.03, p=0.000 , third observation and fourth observation (MD=1.87, p=0.000) and fourth and fifth observation (MD=1.77, p=0.000). We can, therefore, conclude that a brisk walking training program (6 week) elicits a statistically significant increase in Abdominal Muscular Strength Endurance.
