본 연구는 50대 비만중년여성을 대상으로 순환운동이 건강체력, 혈압 및 혈관탄성도에 미치는 영향을 규명하는데 있었으며, 이를 위해 비만중년여성 24명을 대상으로 운동그룹 12명, 대조군 12명으로 분류하여 8주간 순환운동 프로그램을 실시하였다. 순환운동 프로그램은 유산소 운동과 저항운동으로 구성되었으며, 회당 40분간, 주3회 실시하였고, 유산소 운동 수행강도는 50-70% HRmax, 저항운동은 1-RM의 40-60%로 수행되었으며, 순환운동 전 후에 측정한 자료의 그룹 내 차이 비교를 위해 대응표본 T검정, 그룹 간 차이는 운동 전 후의 변화율을 산출하여 독립표본 T검정을 실시하였다. 그 결과 운동그룹은 건강 체력 중 BMI(p<.05)가 유의하게 감소하였고, 심폐지구력(p<.001), 근지구력(p<.001), 유연성(p<.01)이 증가하였으며, 그룹 간 대조군 보다 심폐지구력, 유연성이 유의하게 증가되었다(p<.01). 수축기 혈압과 이완기 혈압은 운동그룹이 유의하게 감소하였으며(p<.01), 이완기 혈압은 그룹 간 대조군 보다 운동그룹이 유의하게 감소하였다(p<.05). PWV는 운동그룹이 유의하게 감소하였고(p<.05), 대조군이 유의하게 증가하였으며(p<.01), 그룹 간 대조군 보다 운동군이 유의하게 감소하였다(p<.05). 이상의 결과 비만중년여성의 건강증진 및 비만치료를 위한 순환운동은 건강체력, 혈압 및 혈관탄성도에 긍정적인 영향을 미친 것으로 사료된다.

This study aims to develop a life-friendly, wrap-one-piece style dance sports practice wear considering the physical characteristics of middle-aged, abdominally obese women. These types of practice wear allow people to enjoy exercise easily and to wear these garments as daily wear while meeting the requirements for dance sports wear. The three participants selected for this study were all women with five or more years of dance sports experience and were all average sized on Korea's abdominal obesity scale. In the first phase of the study, practice wear was created in a total of nine styles with three different styles of neckline depths for three different styles of dress skirt lengths. In the second phase of the study, the practice wear was created in 15 styles with five different styles of sleeve lengths for three different styles of waistline heights. After analyzing the design preferences of the participants, the fit preferences of the designs were evaluated and the final appearance was analyzed in order to suggest a pattern. The results of the subjects' first and second preference evaluations showed a preference for a 10 centimeter neckline depth, for high waistlines, and for elbow to wrist-length sleeves. The implementation of this research is expected to be extensive, as its results can be used as basic data for making lifestyle dance sports practice wear that covers the physical insecurities of middle-aged, abdominally obese women and enables them to enjoy their leisure time.
