A total of 20 male college athletes were randomly selected as subjects for the study and equally divided into two group - Experimental Group and Control group. The experimental group underwent 12 weeks (two times per week) of combined plyometric and yoga training, while control group was not given any training during that period. The data was collected before and after the completion of training for four components of physical fitness - vertical jump, dynamic balance, reaction ability, and flexibility. Descriptive statistics and paired t-test was used as statistical technique along with graphical representation. The results revealed that there was significant improvement in the vertical jump, dynamic balance, reaction ability, and flexibility of experimental group, while no changes were observed for control group. The study concluded that plyometric training combined with yoga is beneficial for enhancement of physical fitness among college athletes.
