The gamut of the present experimental research was to examine the effects of yogic exercises on the physical fitness in terms of flexibility and endurance and their resultant effects on the academic achievement of high school students. A representative sample of 200 students (100 males and 100 females) of high school level was drawn randomly from two high schools and were further divided into two groups i.e., experimental and control group each consisting of equal number of males and females. Yogic exercises were given to the experimental group for a period of three months. The control group was not exposed to the yogic training. A factorial design of 2x2x (2) with repeated measure on the last factor was employed to see the significance of difference between different means of experimental and control group in both the genders. Results indicated that flexibility and endurance was improved significantly and thereby improved the academic performance of the students significantly for the experimental group irrespective of gender. The study has important implications for school students for employing yogic exercises in their school curriculum. Introduction Yoga is one of the six orthodox Indian philosophies.
