Today in India special attention and importance are given for performance related fitness but not on the health- related- fitness. Enhancement of performance - related- fitness does not suffice one’s health related fitness. Therefore it is difficult to say that they have a sufficient level of health related fitness. Studies on Taekwondo conducted earlier in Western countries and South Korea are sufficient to record its efficacy in improving physical fitness limited information on psycho- physical variables of School boys is available. Further no information on the impact of Taekwondo for health related physical fitness and mental fitness for school boys is available so far. It was therefore thought desirable to undertake this study entitled “ A Study on Effect of Taekwondo Training Program on Selected Psycho–Physical Variables of School Boys’''.
