Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of a Tabata exercise program as an alternative for firefighters whose working environment makes it difficult to manage physical fitness. The Tabata exercise program, in which 16 people participated, led to increased muscle mass and reduced weight and body fat, which not only improved the health of the firefighters but also improved their cardiopulmonary endurance, muscle endurance, and muscle strength, which are essential elements during firefighting emergency relief activities. On the basis of these results, it is believed that developing and providing guidelines for scientific and systematic exercise programs to firefighters will lead to better work capability during fire and disaster situations.

본 연구는 소방공무원 16명을 대상으로 8주간 고강도 인터벌 트레이닝(HIIT) 중 타바타(Tabta) 프로그램을 진행하였으며 자료처리는 윌콕슨 순위검증(Wilcoxon signed rank test)와 대응표본 t검정(Paired t-test)분석을 실시하였다. 체력요인 중 하버드 스텝(Harvard step, 회)은 운동 전 87.19 ± 12.33에서 운동 후 93.81 ± 13.27 (p < .009), 윗몸일으키기(회)는 운동 전 35.75 ± 10.73에서 운동 후 39.00 ± 8.80 (p < .001), 악력(kg)은 운동 전 53.35 ± 6.11에서 운동 후 55.65 ± 6.74 (p < .035)으로 각각 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 신체조성 중 체지방률(%)은 운동 전 17.69 ± 4.32에서 운동 후 15.66 ± 3.33 (p < .003), 근육량(%)은 운동 전 36.65 ± 4.38에서 운동 후 36.41 ± 4.24 (p < .043), 체중(kg)은 운동 전 75.50 ± 6.40에서 운동 후 74.24 ± 6.40 (p < .000)으로 각각 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 37층 도착시간은 운동 전 8 min 13 s ± 1 min 8 s에서 운동 후 7 min 19 s ± 1 min 6 s (p < .002) 유의하게 감소시켰다. 따라서 HIIT는 화재 및 재난상황 대비 업무능력 향상에 긍정적 영향을 미칠 것으로 판단된다.
