Journal Title: Biology of Exercise - Year 2015, Vol 11, Issue 1
Abstract
To assess the effects of Surya nadi pranayama on hematological parameters. Forty, university level girls of Department of Physical Education (T), Guru Nanak Dev University, Amritsar between the age group of 21-26 years (Mean ± SD: age 22.95 ± 1.796 years, height 5.552 ± 1.974 feet’s, body mass 61.265 ± 4.080 kg) volunteered to participate in the study. The subjects from Group-A: Experimental were subjected to a 4-weeks surya nadi pranayama (Right Nostril). Student t test for paired samples was utilized to compare the means of the pre-test and the post-test. No significant differences were found in Hemoglobin (Hb), Total Cholesterol (TC), Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-Cholesterol), High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (HDL-Cholesterol) and Triglycerides (TG) among University Level Girls.
