Abstract This study investigated the comparative effects of Suryanamaskar and Pragya Yoga on triglyceride level among sedentary middle-aged men. A total of 45 male participants (aged 35–55 years) from Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, were randomly assigned into three groups: Suryanamaskar, Pragya Yoga, and control. The interventions were conducted for 45 minutes daily, five days a week, over an eight-week period. Suryanamaskar and Pragya yoga was considered the independent variable and Triglyceride was considered the dependent variable. Triglyceride 2 ml of blood in plain vial was taken as the criterion measures.
A 3 × 3 Mixed-Model ANOVA with Bonferroni post-hoc tests revealed significant reductions in triglyceride concentrations in both experimental groups compared to the control. While both practices demonstrated beneficial effects, the Suryanamaskar group showed slightly greater improvement than the Pragya Yoga group. However, the results of the present study indicate that both experimental groups—namely the Suryanamaskar group and the Pragya Yoga group—demonstrated a significant reduction after four and eight weeks of training. The analysis of the data further revealed that there was no significant change in Triglyceride in the control group.
The findings suggest that yogic practices, particularly Suryanamaskar and Pragya Yoga, can serve as non-pharmacological strategies for managing hypertriglyceridemia and improving metabolic health.
Keywords Suryanamaskar, Pragya Yoga and Triglyceride.
