Effect Of Aerobic Dance Training On Maximal Oxygen Uptake(Vo2max) Of College Women

The study was designed to investigate the “Effect of aerobic dance training on maximum oxygen uptake of College women”. To achieve this purpose 30 college women were randomly selected from Kovai Kalaimagal College of Arts and Science, Coimbatore as subjects. They were divided into two groups. The group I was considered as control group and group II was considered as experimental group. The investigator did not made any attempt to equate the group. The control group was not given any exercise and the experimental group was given aerobic dance training for eight weeks. The Vo₂ max was assessed before and after the training period of 8 weeks. The collected data on Vo₂max due to effect of aerobic dance training was analyzed by computing mean and standard deviation. In order to find out the significant improvement if any, ‘t’ test was applied. 0.05 level of confidence was fixed to test the level of significance. The study revealed that the vo₂ max  was significantly improved due to the influence of aerobic dance training.
