To achieve this purpose, sixty subjects from the Faculty of General & Adapted Physical Education and Yoga, Ramakrishna Mission Vivekananda Educational and Research Institute, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, were selected. The subjects’ age ranged between 18 and 25 years. They were divided into four groups: Group I – Traditional Training Group (TTG), Group II – Medicine Ball Exercises Training Group (MBETG), Group III – Combined Training Group (CTG), and Group IV – Control Group (CG). All three training groups participated in their respective training programmes involving traditional exercises, medicine ball exercises, and a combination of both, while the control group did not participate in any training other than their regular routine work. The training period lasted for twelve weeks, conducted from 6.30 a.m. to 7.30 a.m. The selected criterion variables were strength, assessed using the push-up test, and shot - put performance, assessed using the shot-put throw. The data collected before and after the training period were treated using ANCOVA, with the level of confidence fixed at 0.05.
