Mallakhamb is one of the most advanced apparatus used to build up the physique. Sometime, south side people are practised in their own place inside of Kalam (Practice ground, gymnasium), but other people can’t see their practice. Nowadays, fashion has transformed, and it has become a special individuality. Performance in any sport mainly depends upon the individual's physical fitness. The components of physical fitness are strength, endurance, speed, flexibility, agility and coordination. Most of the benefits of physical fitness, physiology, self-efficacy and neuromuscular coordination are achieved through mallakhamb training. Regular conditioning on the Mallakhamb feats would improve sports performance like gymnastics fish poses on the Roman Rings, arm balance on pole vault, and Wrestling and Judo shoulder vaults improve the wrestler’s shoulder throw and dismounting a mallakhamb would be basic training for a swimmer for diving.
