Analysis of Physical Fitness Components Among Athletes and Non-Athletes

Abstract – The main goal of this study was to find out how certain aspects of physical health differ between athletes and people who do not play sports. The study examined 120 male students from Guru Kashi University, ages 17 to 23. There were 60 athletes and 60 non-athletes. The four main fitness factors analyzed were Strength, Endurance, Flexibility, and Agility. Standardized tests measured each trait. A t-test with a 0.05 significance threshold showed that the health statuses of the two groups were significantly different. A statistically significant gap was found when comparing athletes to non-athletes in health-related physical fitness. This indicates that regular athletic training influences physical fitness.
