摘要:The present study was planned to investigate the effect of up and downhill running regime on 5000- meter running performance of boy’s athletes. To conduct the study, 50 male athletes who competed in district level athletic competitions were selected as sample. The age range of the selected subjects was between 16 to 18 years. These selected subjects then divided into two groups i.e. experiment and control group with equal number of subjects assigned randomly in each group. The subjects of experimental group underwent up and down hill running as per the training schedule of eight weeks along with usual exercises whereas subjects of control group did not perform up and down hill running. Results indicate that eight weeks of up and downhill running during training period has been instrumental in improved performance in 5000m timings of athletes from experimental group as compared to athletes constituting the control group. It was concluded that up and downhill running should be included in training programme for athletes taking part in 5000m athletic event.
