Many studies believe recovery exercises enhance performance by positively affecting to cardiorespiratory, flexibility, and performance skill and body composition. It is crucial to set up proper recovery exercise and consistent training program. The main interest of the present study was to compare the effect of ten weeks recovery exercise training on selected physical fitness variables of Woldia preparatory school basketball participant students. The study design was quasi experimental method. 36 male basketball participants were selected purposively and divided into 2 equal experimental groups and control group by using simple random sample technique. Each group had 12 students, EG1with the age of (18.67±.778) two days per week and EG2with the age of (18.75±.965) three days per week trained recovery exercise training for ten weeks in addition to common basketball training. However, control group with the age of (19.5±1.168) didn’t perform recovery exercise training after basketball training. All groups had taken pre and posttest results, And all subjects evaluated in 4 physical fitness tests: cardiorespiratory fitness measured using 3 minute step, explosive power using vertical jump, flexibility measured using sit and reach and body composition measured using skinfold caliper tests. The test raw data were analyzed statistically by using paired sample T- test SPSS and independent T- test version 26 and significance difference was used at P<0.05 level of confidence. After analyzed the raw data the mean difference and P-value (P<0.05) of EG three days per week trainees showed statistical significant improvements on each variable. And two days per week trainees also showed significant improvement on flexibility and cardio respiratory. And they didn’t show improvement on explosive power and body composition fitness (p˃.106) and (p˃.100) respectively. In addition to this, the mean difference and p-value (P>0.05) of control group didn’t show significant difference on each variables. Based on this finding it can be conclude three days per week has significant effect within ten weeks due to recovery exercise training on selected physical fitness variables. Two days per week also has positive effect on flexibility and cardiovascular fitness of student’s than control group
