Abstract:

Today the world is a competitive place, Sports teach to strive and compete for what a person wants out of life. By being introduced to compete at a young age, sportsmen are able to pursue their dreams. The longer part of their life is being healthy through exercise. Sports should become integral part of every one’s life in schools and in home as well. Generally a healthy person is gifted with a will stronger than a physically week person. The overweight and obesity percentage of the population, as measured by body mass index (BMI), has been increasing in adolescents. It is hypothesized that greater unhealthy weight may be associated with poorer fitness and lower levels of neuromuscular control including balance and coordination, which could place those with elevated BMI at greater risk for injury. The present study is an attempt to find out comparison among the college level men volleyball and basketball players on Body Mass Index (BMI). So compare the body mass index of college level men volleyball and basketball players and find out the better one.
