The available related literatures have reached at a long last conclusion is that the exposure of optimal genetic factors to the optimum training environment produces champion athletes. Sporting ability is found that racial athletic ability reify race as inherited permanent biological characteristics. In order to adapt the training load, the athletes have to develop physiologically to meet the physical demand required at elite levels. The present investigation was an attempt to evaluate the influence of insulin and hemoglobin on performance of tribal athletes. Seventeen (N=17) middle distance tribal male athletes (800mt. and 1500mt.) were selected as subject from different training clubs of Jalpaiguri district assuring their minimum district level participation for two times. The age of the respondents were ranged from 18 to 22 years. Venous blood samples were collected through Venipuncture Sampling technique and were tested in pathological laboratory for the assessment of fasting insulin and hemoglobin of subjects. Performance level was measured through time in 1500mt. run. In order to analysis the collected data, Pearson's product moment correlation of coefficient was adopted to find out the existence of relationship between the selected variables and performance of tribal athletes. The major findings of this investigation was that fasting insulin was significantly associated with performance level of middle distance tribal athletes and also noted a profound insight on the influence of lower range of fasting insulin on higher performance in middle distance running event. On other hand, an insignificant relationship was found between hemoglobin and performance.
