Influence of different intensity aerobic dance on bmi among young boys

The purpose of the present study was to find out the influence of different intensity aerobic dance on BMI among young boys. For the purpose of the study forty five young boys (n = 45) were randomly selected as subjects and their age was ranged from 14 to 18 years. The selected subjects were further assigned into three equal groups of fifteen subjects each (n = 15). First group was undergone for low intensity aerobic dance training and the second group was engaged in medium intensity aerobic dance training and the third group was trained high intensity aerobic dance. The training was planned for the duration of twelve weeks and it was restricted to three sessions per week. BMI was considered as a criterion variable for this study and it was measured by using the standard formula method. The data were collected before and after the training duration and the collected data were analysed by using the statistical tool of analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). The Scheffe's test was applied as a post hoc test to determine the paired mean difference if any. The result of the study pointed out that, there was significant difference occurred on BMI among the different intensity aerobic dance training groups and the control group at 0.05 level of confidence.
