This study aimed to examine the impact of training with gadgets on forced vital capacity (FVC) and maximum voluntary ventilation (MVV) among male tennis players. A total of 30 male tennis players from Sri Ramakrishna Mission Vidyalaya Maruthi College of Physical Education and the Faculty of General & Adapted Physical Education and Yoga, Ramakrishna Mission Vivekananda Educational and Research Institute, Periyanaickenpalayam, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, were randomly assigned to either a training with gadgets group (TWGG) or a control group (CG), with 15 participants in each group. The experimental group underwent an eight-week tennis training programme incorporating gadgets, while the control group followed their regular routine without any specialized intervention. Forced vital capacity and maximum voluntary ventilation were assessed as dependent variables, with tennis training using gadgets serving as the independent variable. A paired t-test was employed to analyze the pre- and post-test differences, with statistical significance set at p < 0.05. The findings revealed a significant improvement in forced vital capacity and maximum voluntary ventilation among the participants in the training with gadgets group, highlighting the effectiveness of gadget-assisted training in enhancing respiratory function in male tennis players.
