Abstract

The combination of aerobic and anaerobic activities in different games will affect the cardio respiratory system. The study was to analysis the VOo2max and forced vital capacity of the players and non players. For this study one hundred and eighty women students were taken. Six groups, each with sixty students from volleyball, basketball, badminton, tabletennis, throwball and non playing group. Computerized PFT kit was used to measure the Vo2 max and Forced Vital capacity of the students. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was applied for the six groups to understand whether there was any significant difference. Scheffe’s Post Hoc comparison test was used to find out the source of significant difference among the groups. 0.05 level of significance was used to test the statistical derivatives. From the result is was concluded that VO2 max of all the five study sports groups are significantly higher when compared to the Non player and Forced Vital Capacity of all the five sports groups are significantly higher when compared to the Non player group.
