COMPARATIVE STUDY OF 100 METER PERFORMANCE AND CARDIOVASCULAR ENDURANCE OF UNIVERSITY LEVEL MALE AND FEMALE SPRINTERS
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to compare the performance and cardiovascular endurance of university level male & female sprinters. The data were collected from twenty five male & twenty five female sprinters who participated in the inter college athletic meets of Panjab University, Chandigarh and Punjabi University, Patiala during the year 2009-2010. Performance was recorded from 100 meter sprint and cardiovascular endurance was measured by Cooper’s 12 Minutes Run and Walk test. The ’t’ test was applied to compare male and female sprinters in performance and cardiovascular endurance. It was evident from the results that male and female sprinters participating in inter college level competition significantly differed at 0.01 1evel of confidence as the computed‘t’ value found to be 10.712 was greater than table value of 2.682 required to be significant at 0.01 level of confidence.
