The purpose of the study was to analyse the effect of Endurance Training On SelectedPhysiological Variables At Moderate And Low Altitudes. the endurance training programparticipants. The dependent variables for the study were VO2 max, positive breath hold
capacity and vital capacity. The duration of training program was 12 weeks. Descriptivestatistics were used to describe important characteristics of the data. ANCOVA (analysiscovariance) was used as the statistical technique to compare the effects of training atmoderate and low-level altitude on selected physiological variables. The results of thestudy indicated that there was a significant difference between the post test results of theselected physiological variables i.e. VO2 max, positice breath hold capacity and vital
capacity after the endurance training at moderate altitude as compare to their lowaltitude counterparts.
