The purpose of the study was intended to investigate the effect of different intensity resistance training programme on selected strength parameter of progressive resistance training with the three different intensity groups on selected strength parameter namely back strength. To achieve the purpose of the study the investigator adapted a series of systematic steps. sixty subjects were selected randomly. The sixty subjects were randomly assigned into four equal groups comprising fifteen each. The study groups were named based on the intensity of training (pertaining to this particular study), as high intensity group, medium intensity group, low intensity group and the fourth group acted as control group. All the subjects were tested on the above mentioned criterion variable before the commencement of the training programme. Thereafter three different intensities of resistance training were given 3 days a week for 10 weeks for the three experimental groups and the control group did not participate in any systematic programme. The collected data were analysed statistically by analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) and Scheffe’s post-hoc test was used to test the paired mean differences. High, medium and low intensity training groups showed significant improvement in back strength as compared to control group. The high and medium intensity progressive resistance training programme significantly improved back strength as compared to the low intensity training programme. There was no significant difference between high and medium intensity training programmes in back strength.

Different intensity, Resistance training, Back strength, High Medium and Low intensity.
