Singh (2014) carried out this study to compare physique and motor fitness
among players. The study was conducted on 50 male players in which 25 tribal and 25
non tribal football players. Range of age 18 to 23 years. All the samples selected from
random basis. To assess physique, Heath & Carter Method (1967) was utilized. BMI
computed by Siri Formulae (1962) and for Motor fitness JCR test prepared by Cooper
(1963) was used. When comparison made on chin-up dimension, tribal male football
players having more arm strength (M=17.84) compared to non-tribal players
(M=13.23), indicates that both the groups are differ at .01 level of significance. When
same groups again compared on vertical jump item i.e. explosive leg strength, result
indicate that non tribal players having better leg strength (M=25.78) compared to
tribal players (M=22.41), „t‟ value is 3.56 shows that there is significant difference at
.01 level. Again comparison made on shuttle run item which measure agility and
speed, result found that tribal players having more agility and speed (M=31.78)
compare to non tribal players (M=33.64), „t‟ ratio is 4.42 that shows both the group
are differ at .01 level. Last comparison made on the BMI (Body Mass Index) result
indicate that tribal players (M = 18.80) and non-tribal (M=18.10) and the„t‟ value 1.12
demonstrates that among the groups no significant difference that implies both the
groups are equivalent on BMI
Khuman et al. (2014) conducted study to compare the static and dynamic

Lamb et al. (2012) “focuses on the concept of positive health and, in
particular, recognizes the importance of physical fitness. It is argued that measures of
physical fitness are indicators of positive health and such measures are identified
under their discrete headings of agility, flexibility, power, speed and reaction time,
strength, cardiovascular capacity, body composition and posture. The theme of health-
related fitness is explored, with recognition of its increasing importance for health
promotion in schools, the community and commerce. Evidence is presented that
highlights the general acceptance of the importance of certain fitness components in
the assessment of the positive health of populations. In addition, an alternative method
Review of Related Literture
27
of assessing fitness is discussed, arising from the authors' recognition of its potential
as an inexpensive, easily administered indicator of one aspect of positive health. The
case for using subjective indicators of positive health is also presented–the argument
being that subjective health could be a possible mediator in the attainment of positive
health.”

representative (n=1172) selected junior players (aged 13–16 years) undertook an
anthropometric and fitness testing battery with players split according to selection
level (i.e., national, regional). MANCOVA analyses, with age and maturation
controlled, identified national players as having lower sum of 4 skinfolds scores
compared to regional players, and also performed significantly better on all physical
tests. Stepwise discriminate analysis identified that estimated maximum oxygen
uptake, chronological age, body mass, 20 m sprint; height, sum of 4 skinfolds and
sitting height discriminated between selection levels, accounting for 28.7% of the
variance. This discriminate analysis corresponded to an overall predictive accuracy of
63.3% for all players. These results indicate that performance characteristics differed
between selection levels in junior Rugby League players. However, the small
magnitude of difference between selection levels suggests that physical qualities only
partially explain higher representative selection. The monitoring and evaluation of
such variables, alongside game related performance characteristics, provides greater
knowledge and understanding about the processes and consequences of selection,
training and performance in youth sport.”
Surekha et al. (2010) conducted the study on 50 male athletes aged 20 – 25
years who were non-smokers, non-alcoholic, not suffering from any illness previously
and present. As a measure of exercise the subjects were asked to run for 15 minutes.
The resting Heart Rate and Blood Pressure were recorded in supine position and the
blood sample was collected for neutrophil count. After recording the above
parameters at rest the subject was instructed to run for 15 min, after 15 min sample of
blood collected 15 minutes for neutrophil count. Student‟s t-test was employed to
assess the gathered information. There was a momentous raise in neutrophil count
after exercise when compared to the neutrophil count at rest with p-value of <0.0001.
The increase in neutrophil count is related to the production of cytokines and is also
due to classical stress hormones like epinephrine, nor-epinephrine, cortical and
growth hormone.

Ziv and Lidor (2009) examined female and male elite basketball player‟s
physical traits, physiological qualities, performance on court and plans for nutrition.
This investigation contains pertinent data on physical and physiological parameters.
Six principle discoveries rose up out of their assessment: (i) according to playing
position and skill levels there will be some different physical properties exist such as
centers are more heavier, taller and less mesomorphic than guards; (ii) (VO(2max))
values of female and male players are 44.0-54.0 and 50-60 mLO (2)/kg/min; (iii)
supreme vertical jump capacity of advance skills level male and female players are
higher; (iv) the speed and agility among the more talented female and male players
are higher than the less talented players; (v) during the game the more high-intensity
movements better performed by guards as compare to forwards and centers; and (vi)
while in actual play decreases in physical and mental performance due to a water
shortage of 2% of bodyweight. Five impediments connected with the testing protocols
utilized as a part of the investigations are sketched out, between them the absence of a
longitudinal methodology, absence of examinations executed underneath physical
effort situations, and absence of investigations utilizing a period movement
investigation.. Moreover, for the basketball and conditioning coaches three handy
proposals are exhibited. It is inferred that the information rising up out of these
studies, joined with the learning acquired by investigations on physical and
physiological qualities of first class basketballers, ought to be implemented by
basketball and conditioning coaches at the time of arranging training programmer for
elite basketball players.
