For this research, Bhagawantrao Shivaji Patil Mahavidyalaya of Paratwada city was taken as the source of data. In this study, male students were selected as the subject. The selected students were studying Bachelor of Arts and their age was between 18 to 20 years. A total 20 subjects were selected for this study. The selected subjects were divided into two equal groups. Various tests were used to measure physical strength, including pull-ups and push-ups. The training program was conducted for six weeks. The training was given 6 days in a week. The ANCOVA statistical method and paired 't' was used to determine the effects. To test significance in each case, a confidence level of 0.05 was used, which was considered appropriate. The findings of this study show that the fast and slow yoga exercise program is an effective mechanism for increasing muscle strength. By comparing the effects of fast and slow yoga practice on the given group, it was found that slow yoga practice had more effect on the given group. It has been suggested by the researchers that yoga practice should be done in a slow training method from which a lot of benefits can be obtained.
