Methods: 30 subjects with age group 17-22 were participated in this study. Subjects were divided in to two equal groups with 15 samples in each group. Group A performed specific weight bearing hip strengthening exercises and Group B performed Hip strengthening exercise with resistance along with conventional knee exercise. Both group performed the exercises for four(4) weeks. Outcome was messured before and after the treatment.

Result: Pre-post-test within the group found significantely effective on both groups. Comparative study found that there is significant difference on effect between the groups with P-value 0.0001. Group B found more effective compared to Group-A with hip strengthening resistance exercise and conventional exercise over hip strengthening exercise alone.

Conclusion: This study concluded that both exercise program are effective in reduction of pain, improvement of muscle strength and functional staus, but combined exercise program was more effective among female sprinters with Patello femoral pain syndrome.
