Abstract: The origin of the ancient Olympic Games is lost the midst of pre-history, but for many centuries they were only a festival of the Greek people. The Games were first held in honour of the Greek God, Zeus in 776 BC in the plain of kingdom of Elis, nestled in lush valley between the Alpheus River and Mount Kronion, 15 km from the Ionian Sea. The Olympiad celebrated that year was considered as the first and was used to date subsequent historic events

Abstract: There are two different ways to measure someone's personality. Both ways involve asking a person questions about their feelings and how they might react in different situation. They first way to measure personality that I have researched is called EPI. This is a huge questionnaire that looks at the different categories of personality. You can find out if you are an extrovert is someone who is lively and outgoing and has lots of friends whereas an introvert is the opposite as they like to be alone and shy. The questions in the EPI can help people to find out more about themselves

Abstract: Most of us know from personal experience that environmental factors can affect how you feel and perform your daily tasks. For example, when you step outside on a hot and humid day, you may immediately notice an elevation in temperature, the "heavy" quality of the air, and stickiness against your skin. But did you know that factors like the weather can have a physiological affect on your body. Environmental factors like extreme heat or cold, high altitude and air pollution can elevate heart rates, make it harder to breathe, and impair the ability to exercise. A general understanding of how environmental factors can influence your overall well-being and daily task performance is important for everyone; young or old, fit or unfit. This segment discusses recent physiological research and findings that delve into how the body adapts to short-term (acute) and long term (chronic) exposure to these environmental factors, specifically temperature, altitude and air pollution. The purpose of the present study was to find out that on which game the factor affect most. To accomplish the purpose of the study samples of 100 International level sportsmen's from athletics, hockey, weightlifting, Wrestling & Shooting were taken. A tool for collection of data was questionnaire method. These questionnaires were sent to the sportsmen of related games. After receiving the responses of questionnaire game wise distribution of raw data was done and for analyses of that data percentage method was used and result were derived. Result revealed that Environment factor affect on sports performance.

Abstract: This research proposal for PhD studies in Physiotherapy aims towards healthy, happy and independent geriatric life style. In the past few years the interest in body composition, nutritional status and physical independence in elderly people has markedly increased because of the increasing number of elderly people in the general population and its implication for geriatric health care 1-2. Advancing age results in body composition changes such as decrease in fat free mass 3-4, and increase in fat mass 4-6. Also, the amount of minerals in the fat free mass changes 7; as does the ratio of total body water in form of intercellular to intracellular water 8-12. Geriatric ageing is usually characterized by loss of skeletal muscle mass and function, termed as sarcopenia13. Both physical inactivity and inadequate nutritional intake are the main contributing factors to sarcopenia and reduction in fat free mass 14-15. These changes have been associated with dramatic functional decline, physical frailty, falls in elderly and a bad quality of geriatric life 16-18.Until now very few studies have investigated both the effects of (a) nutritional supplementation and (b) exercises on nutritional status, body composition and muscular function among geriatric population 19-21. Few studies showed that resistance training improved muscle size but nutritional supplements had no effects on any primary outcome of energy intake, body composition or thigh muscle area 20. De Jong et al. observed a slight improvement of lean body mass and energy intake with exercises.

Abstract: Exercise has positive chronotropic effect on heart rate and on cessation heart rate returns to pre-exercise level. A delay in heart rate recovery (HRR) (≤12beats in first minute) is considered abnormal and reflects autonomic dysfunction.The present study was taken up to find out the presence of abnormal HRR in normal subjects (Male) and to establish HRR as an independent autonomic marker. For the study 106 healthy young adults (male) were subjected to exercise by Bicycle ergometer till targeted Heart Rate (85%Maximum Heart Rate(MHR)) was achieved. HRR at the end of 1 minutefollowingcessation of exercise were tabulated. In our study 23(21.7%) subjects showed Abnormal HRR indicating HRR could be an independent autonomic marker.

Abstract: Exercise recovery involves a number of Post-exercise Steps that are essential for any exercise regime, regardless of fitness level, the type of physical activity or the exercise intensity. Exercise recovery does not take long or require much effort, but it is often neglected. The exercise recovery is mainly of two types one is Active Recovery and the other is passive Recovery. Active Recovery is the term used for cooling down (with slow jogging, stretching etc. ) after a high intensive work out and Passive Recovery is Stopping dead, doing nothing again until he head out on his next run a couple of days later. The results of a study suggest that an active recovery of 3 minutes between High intensity, short duration exercise bouts significantly increase peak power and average power compared to a passive recovery, irrespective of changes in blood lactate levels. Several research studies have been conducted in this specific area in the international level but the effort is supposed to be weaker with respect to Indian Sport Scientists. Feeling the importance of recovery in the sport field and considering its application in a wider range or rather as an effort to make it much more acceptable to the sport society the investigator under the guidance of her supervisor envisaged to conduct the study entitled "A study to locate the difference between active and passive recovery after strenuous workout." The subjects for the present study were 20 male trained athletes from Howrah and Purba Medinipur districts of West Bengal who were selected randomly from a coaching camp.
Key Words: Active recovery, Passive Recovery, Strenuous workout.

Abstract: Background: Coordinative abilities are qualities of an organism to coordinative separate elements of action in our system to decide a concrete action task coordinative abilities help in learning faster and also to achieve high level of performance. Kabaddi is a combatic with great strength and coordinative ability oriented sports. Therefore it is necessary to investigate that certain coordinative abilities are acting as basic factors of the kabaddi performance or not. Aim: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between Kabaddi performance and selected coordinative ability of the district player. Methodology: For the present study fourteen male Kabaddi players who had participated in district kabaddi competition held at Medinipur were randomly selected for this study. Age group of the subjects was 18-27 years. To find out the relationship of Kabaddi performance to selected coordinative abilities namely orientation ability, differentiation ability, reaction ability, balance ability and rhythmic ability. Product moment correlation was computed and verified at 0.05 level of significance. Result: Findings reveals that coordinative abilities such as reaction ability and rhythmic ability were found significantly related to the kabaddi performance as their calculated Correlation Coefficient(r) were 0.66 and 0.54 respectively. Orientation ability, differentiation ability and balance ability were not found significantly related to the kabaddi performance as their calculated Correlation Coefficient(r) were 0.05, 0.01 and 0.34 respectively.

Abstract: Quadratus lumborum (QL) myofascial trigger points (MTrP) are well documented in low back pain (LBP) patients. There is a Growing body of evidence suggesting that Strain counterstrain technique (SCS) is an effective treatment for the pain associated with MTrP. Literature is sparse regarding the effectiveness of SCS on MTrP in QL in LBP subjects. We studied the immediate effects of SCS on pain intensity & functional outcome in subjects having LBP with MTrP in QL. 40 subjects were randomly allocated into two groups. The Control group (CG) received moist heat, & the Experimental group (EG) received moist heat & SCS technique. Outcome measures were Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) & Patient Specific Functional Scale (PSFS).Pain scores(VAS) Showed Statistically significant differences within the groups (P<0.0001), while clinically significant improvement was seen only in EG with mean difference (3.75) , 95% confidence interval (4.17,3.04), PSFS also showed significant improvement in EG.
