ABSTRACT


The purpose of the present study was to investigate and compare the Effect of Swimming Training on Cardio-Pulmonary Index of School Going Students. For the present study, researcher selected 40 male  swimmers from Govt. Model Senior Secondary School, Port Blair, A & N Island. The age of the subjects were varied from 14 to 16 years. The Resting pulse rate, Maximum breath holding time , Systolic blood pressure, Diastolic blood pressure , Vital capacity  and Maximum expiratory pressure were selected. To assess the physiological parameters of male  competitive and recreational swimmers: mean,  standard deviation and t-ratio were computed.  Cardio-pulmonary index  (CPI) was calculated  by Hyman formula – C.P.I = V.C + M.B.H + M.E.P + Age/ S.P. + D.P. + P.R.  The results of the study concluded that competitive and recreational Male swimmers  did not differ significantly  on age, pulse rate, systolic blood pressure exerted in arteries,  maximum expiratory pressure,  and maximum breathing holds parameters of  human physiology. Competitive male swimmers were found higher in age, greater amount of pulse rate, blood pressure and  maximum respiratory pressure than their counter parts. Recreational Male swimmers  had  greater amount of maximum breath hold capacity, vital capacity and CPI than did male competitive swimmers.
