  • Abstract:
  • The purpose of the study was to find out the effect of game specific training with and without psychomotor skills training on speed and stress. Forty five male kabaddi players aged between 19 and 25 years were selected for the study. They were divided into three equal groups, each group consisting of fifteen subjects in which three experimental groups and one control group, in which the group I (n=15) underwent game specific training with psychomotor skill training, group II (n = 15) underwent game specific training for three days (alternative days) per week for twelve weeks and group III, acted as control, which did not participate in any training apart from their regular kabaddi game practice. The subjects were tested on selected criterion variable as speed and stress at prior to and immediately after the training period. For testing the speed was assessed by administering 50 meters run and stress was measured by using Girdano and Everly Stress Scale, The analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used to find out the significant difference if any, between the experimental groups and control group on selected criterion variable separately. Since there were three groups involved in the present study, the Scheffé S test was used as post-hoc test. The selected criterion variables such as speed WAS improved and stress was decreased significantly for all the training groups when compared with the control group.
