Prof. Premkumar K., Prof. Dr. CK Senthilkumar

Abstract: Background: Aerobic training is augmentation of the energy utilization of the muscles by means of an exercise programme. Mindfulness-based aerobics programs, including aerobic dance and aerobic training will improve well-being. So, the purpose of the study is to compare immediate responses of cardiorespiratory variables. Methods: Randomly selected 20 female college students, age 19-20 yrs with BMI 18-23. group A -aerobic dance and group B -aerobic training, cardiorespiratory variables were calculated. Results: There is significant difference in HR, SBP immediate after exercise, and SBP 3-minute after exercise between aerobic dance and aerobic exercise. But no significant differences occur in RR, SBP, HR after exercise between aerobic dance and aerobic exercises populations. Conclusions: Findings provide cardiorespiratory variables when comparing aerobic dance and aerobic exercises on mindfulness training can be prescribed for an individually by choice.
