dc.description.abstractExercise has a huge potential for everyone in contributing to healthier lifestyles and impact positively on physical and physiological performance. The purpose of this study was to compare physiological parameters such as Resting Heart Rate (RHR) and VO2 max between artists and athletes. Sixty [(N=60), (age 19-23) (BMI 24 ± 1.5)] female athletes and dancers were selected from Jaffna, Sri Lanka, and classified in to Artists group [ (n=30, practice bharathanatyam 90 to 120 min / day for 2 to 3 day / week over the period of minimum 5 years)] and Athlete group ( n=30, practice sports and games 90 to 120 min / day/ 2 to 3 day / week over the period of minimum 5 years)] were selected as subjects. They were measured Resting Heart Rate (RHR) using Palpating the radial artery for full one minute for each subject and VO2 max assessed by Queen’s step test. The resting heart rate was taken during early morning hours the collected data were statistically treated by using independent ‘t’ test , 0.05 level of confidence was fixed to test the significance. The results of the study shows that athletes were had lesser Resting Heart Rate (RHR) (mean 68.47), and higher VO2 max (mean 46.67) than Dancers [RHR (mean 77.93), and VO2 max (mean 44.33)]. Hence it was concluded that, athletic type of Exercise positively influence on physiological parameters in respect of RHR and VO2 max than dancers. In the brightness and unpacked of the study reveals that dance is an art form which help to improve health status. And for professional dancers need to undergo additional fitness to tolerate theatre load.en_US
