The purpose of the study was to find out “Effect of Pranayama and Suryanamaskar training on Breath Holding Time and Cardiovascular Endurance of male Students” The study was formulated as a true random group design, consisting of a pre-test and post-test. The sample of the study is thirty Pranayama (N=30), thirty Suryanamaskar (N=30) & Control Group (N=30) male school Students were taken as the subjects for the Study from Gyandhara Shikshan Tirth, Sadra; Gujarat, India. Thus total number of subjects were (N=90) ninety only. The age group of the subjects was ranged from (18-25) years. Pre-tests were conducted for all the subjects on selected Breath Holding Time and Cardiovascular Endurance variables. The experimental groups participated in their respective Pranayama training and Suryanamaskar training for a period of 9 weeks. The post-tests were conducted on the above said dependent variables after a period of 9 weeks training on all the three groups, namely, experimental group-I, experimental group-II and group-III control group. The differences between the initial and final scores on selected dependent variables were considered as the effect of selected experimental treatments. To test the statistical significance, the obtained data were subjected to statistical treatment using ANCOVA. In all cases 0.05 level was fixed to test the hypothesis.
