Strategic Integration of Yogic Protocols for Optimizing Performance and Holistic Health in Kho-Kho Players

This research examines Yogic Protocols as a primary intervention for improving holistic health and athletic performance in Kho-Kho. As sports science shifts toward internal physiological regulation, Yoga offers a methodology for balancing the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) against the high-intensity demands of intermittent sports. This study analyzes the correlation between consistent practice and multidimensional markers such as Heart Rate Variability (HRV), cortisol regulation, and explosive power. The findings advocate for Yoga as a sustainable, cost-effective solution for long-term health and peak performance.
