This study was designed to investigate the impact of asana and pranayama practices on selected
physiological variables among college students. To achieve the purpose of the study (N=60) sixty men
college students were selected from Bharathidhasan University, Tamilnadu, India as subjects. The age of the
subjects ranged from 19 to 25 years. The selected subjects were divided into three groups (n=20). Group I
underwent asana practices. Group II underwent pranayama practices. Group III acted as control group who
did not undergo any specialized training program other than their daily routine. The physiological variables
such as breathe holding time, blood pressure and heart rate were selected as dependent variables and they
were assessed by stop watch, digital monitor, and stop watch – beats respectively.
