Abstract – The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of swimming on cardiorespiratory endurance for secondary school students. The authors speculated that swimming would result in a high cardiorespiratory endurance. Twenty young male swimmers (15-18 years old) were included in the study. Participants were recruited on a random basis from Mayur Swimming Pool, Mahendergarh (Haryana). The sample included male high school students. Cardiorespiratory endurance was measured by the Harvard Step Test at preintervention and postintervention after 6 weeks of swimming training. Subjects were divided into groups, those who underwent swimming training (Experimental group, n = 10)) and subjects that did not undergo any training (control group n = 10). Data were analyzed using paired t-test. Results that indicated a significant increase in the cardiovascular endurance of the experimental group and as such revealed an overall positive impact of the swimming training program on participants'
