Twenty-five Indian female archers aged 15 to 17 did eight weeks of asanas and pranayama on top of their shooting: the coordination score rose from 3.68 to 4.32 and the balance score from 32.11 to 32.84, both significantly, while visual hand reaction time stayed at 0.70 seconds and weight and body mass index did not move. It is a before and after with no control group, in a journal with questionable editorial standards, and the differences between one archer and another grow rather than shrink, a sign that the average hides those who gained nothing. The only other figure comes from adults: thirteen elite Indian archers, after six yoga sessions in two weeks, stayed balanced on one leg about 11 to 12 per cent longer, again with no control. Neither study measures the score, and the one on young female archers appears in a venue with questionable editorial standards: the registry reports it but does not use it to decide the status, which remains not studied.claim:yoga-fisico-giovani-arcieri:revision:2026-05-19:2Tue, 19 May 2026 08:00:00 GMT https://matteocampagna.com/en/registry/physical-training/yoga-coordination-balance-young-female-archersclaim:yoga-fisico-giovani-arcieri:new_claim:2026-03-31:non_studiatoTue, 31 Mar 2026 08:00:00 GMT
