This research paper explores the effect of yogic mudras on neuromuscular coordination in sports players. Yogic mudras are physical exercises used in yoga practice believed to influence physiological functions by stimulating nerve endings and energy flow mentioned as per Gheranda Samhita. Neuromuscular coordination is crucial for athletes as it impacts movement precision, efficiency, and overall performance. This study aims to provide empirical evidence on how practicing specific mudras for 4 weeks may enhance neuromuscular coordination, thereby potentially benefiting sports players. The sample population consist of 30 male sports individuals who participated voluntarily for the research. To test the neuromuscular coordination Lafayette's steadiness testing Instrument for eye hand coordination and Plate Tapping Test to assess the speed and the coordination of limb movement. To see the effect ANCOVA as a statistical tool was employed and the level of significance was set at 0.05. The findings of the present study revealed that there was insignificant effect of practicing yogic mudras on neuromuscular coordination as there was no significant difference between pre and posttest of sports players. On the basis of the findings, it was concluded that due to less duration of the treatment there was no significant improvement of Neuromuscular Coordination of sports players. The researcher recommends to increase the duration for the significant effect as Yogic practices consist of pure natural energy which takes time for proper and visible improvement.
