Body composition and post-exercise recovery capacity is a key factor for sports performance. The present study investigates athletes' post-exercise heart rate recovery patterns and body composition in different ball games, aiming to provide valuable insights into their physiological conditioning. The research delves into the relationship between heart rate recovery dynamics and body composition parameters, such as muscle mass, body fat percentage, and overall body mass, among players from diverse ball game backgrounds. In the present research, thirty male university-level football, basketball, and volleyball players participated on a volunteer basis. Out of them, 10 were football players, 10 were basketball players and least 10 were handball players. Post-exercise heart rate recovery time measured in two days. Measurements of weight, height, and two skinfolds (triceps and subscapular) were used to determine the participant's body composition. Where necessary, the LSD test was employed as a post hoc test to pinpoint the precise site of differences. The statistical program SPSS (version 25) was used to do the statistical computation. After 90 seconds, the heart rate (HR) was almost parallel in all three groups of players. The football players have superior HRR time than the handball players, but the HRR time of the basketball players is greater than that of both football and handball players. Football players and basketball players have significantly faster recovery HR than handball players. In total finding the basketball players is superior than that of football and handball players.
