Abstract
At present, physical fitness is vital for college women as it aids manage stress and improves academic performance over enhanced energy and concentration levels. Regular exercise raises a sense of community and increases self-esteem, advancing a positive body image. Whereas, Yoga and aerobic exercises are essential for supporting overall mental wellbeing and physical fitness among college women as well as elder people. They increase flexibility, improve cardiovascular health, and help to strengthen muscles, while also aiding to decrease anxiety and stress. Combining both practices raises a stable routine, which supports emotive resilience and physical energy. This study discovers the impact of aerobic exercises and yoga practices on mental well-being and physical fitness among college women. Using a quantitative technique, we conducted three statistical analyses namely linear regression, logistic regression (LR), and ridge regression (RR) of participants appealing to design aerobic and yoga programs over a semester. Data were composed over pre- and post-intervention measurements, such as physical fitness tests and psychosocial studies evaluating anxiety, stress, and complete health. The findings show that both aerobic exercises and yoga considerably help to improve physical levels of fitness, with advances well-known in cardiovascular survival, strength, and flexibility. A comparative study discovered that both types of exercise deliver extensive benefits, and yoga has shown a more distinct effects on psychosocial health. These outcomes highlight the significance of including dissimilar physical actions in college wellness programs to stimulate both mental and physical health among women.
