IMPACT OF YOGIC EXERCISES ON PSYCHOLOGICAL PERFORMANCE OF RIFLE AND PISTOL SHOOTERS

Abstract

The study's goal is to determine the "impact of Yogic exercises on psychological performance of rifle and pistol shooters". To accomplish this goal, 90 shooters ranging in age from 18 to 40 years were used. The chosen participants were split into two equal groups of 90, one experimental group 45 and one control group 45. The research study concluded that 15 weeks of yogic Practice training improves social maturity, self-confidence, stress, anxiety, and depression performance. The statement of the research hypothesis for women agrees with the results, so the hypothesis was accepted. When compared to its counterpart, the yoga group experimental group had a beneficial influence on socio-psychological characteristics such as anxiety and also when compared to the control group, there is a beneficial effect of yoga practice in cultivating and growing social mature behavior within the experimental group.
