The purpose of the study was to find out effect of kettle bell and battle rope training on selected physical variables among Inter collegiate volleyball players. To achieve the purpose of the study, 45 inter collegiate men players were selected from the University of Madras. The selected subjects age range from 18 to 25 years. The subjects randomly divided into three equal groups and each group consists of 15 subjects. Group-I underwent Kettlebell Training Group (KTG), Group-II underwent Battle rope Training Group (BTG) and Group-III Control Group (CG).The duration of the experimental period was six weeks; practice session for thrice a week, each section lasted 45minutes and the control group did not participate in any kind of special training programme apart from the daily physical activities. The selected physical variables such as upper body muscular strength and core strength was measured by maximum push up and plank test. The subjects of three groups were tested on selected variables prior and immediately after the training period. The collected data were analysed statistically through analyze of covariance (ANCOVA) to find the significance difference. The 0.05 level of confidence was fixed to test the level of significance difference, the result of the study showed that systematic practice of 6 weeks kettlebell and battle rope training significance differences on upper body muscular strength and core strength better than the control group in selected physical variables among inter collegiate volleyball players.
