Influence of different resistance training protocols on resting pulse rate of college men students

The purpose of this study was to find out the influence of different Resistance Training Protocols on Resting Pulse Rate of college men students, One hundred twenty male college students from Government Commerce College, Gandhinagar were selected as subjects at random and their age was between Eighteen to Twenty Two years.

The selected subjects were randomly divided into three equal groups of forty each (n=40). Group I and II were treated as Experimental Group and Group-III was considered as Control Group. All the subjects were given basic Strength Training Exercises without Weight and with minimal Weight for three weeks prior to pre-test and training in order to get initial adaptation for undergoing Resistance Training during their training period. Initial tests were taken for all the subjects on Resting Pulse Rate. It was concluded from the results of the study that there was significant difference in the pre-test and post-test of the three Experimental Groups. It was also concluded from the study that there was significant difference in the adjusted post-test means
