Abstract: The purpose of the study was find out the influence of core board training on selected motor fitness variables among school boys. To achieve the purpose of this study, 30 school boys were randomly selected as subjects from the Kamarajar Higher Secondary School, Pettai, Tirunelveli, Tamil Nadu, India. Their age were ranged from 16 to 18 years. The selected participants were randomly divided into two groups such as group ‘A’ core board training group (n=15) and group ‘B’ acted as control group (n=15). Group ‘A’ underwent core board training for three alternative days per week and each session lasted for an hour for twelve weeks. Control group was not exposed to any specific training but they were participated in regular activities. The balance was assessed by stock balance test (in seconds) and leg strength was assessed by wall sit test (in seconds) were selected as variables. The pre and post tests data were collected on selected criterion variables prior and immediately after the training program. The pre and post-test scores were statistically examined by the Analysis of co-variance (ANCOVA). The level of significant was fixed at 0.05 level. It was concluded that the core board training group had shown significantly improved on balance and leg strength. However the control group had not shown any significant improvement on balance and leg strength.
