Effects of Short Term Practice of Anuloma Viloma Pranayama on Metabolic Fitness (METF) and Bone Integrity (BI)
Öz
To measure the therapeutic effects of Anuloma Viloma Pranayama on Metabolic Fitness (MetF) and Bone Integrity. Fifty, university level girls between the age group of 19-25 years were selected. The subjects were purposively assigned into two groups: Group-A: Experimental (n1=25); Group-B: Control (n2=25). The subjects from Group-A: Experimental were subjected to a 4-weeks Anuloma Viloma Pranayama. Student t test for paired samples was utilized to compare the means of the pre-test and the post-test. Based on the analysis of the results obtained, we conclude that the significant differences were found in Metabolic Fitness (MetF) (i.e., Maximal Oxygen Consumption (VO2max) and blood pressure of University Level Girls. Insignificant between-group differences were noted in Blood Lipid, Blood Sugar and Bone Integrity of University Level Girls.
