  • The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of Hatha Yoga exercise on the body composition, serum lipids, and health-related fitness of obese middle-aged women. The subjects in the Hatha Yoga exercise group (n=9) were 18 obese middle-aged women that trained for 16 weeks and a control group (n=9). Body composition, serum lipids, and health-related fitness were measured in all of the subjects before the start of the training program and at the end of the 16 weeks. The findings of this study were as follows. Body weight, %BF, BMI, WHR, VFA, TC, TG, LDL-C, FFA, and HOMA-IR significantly decreased, whereas LBM, HDL-C, grip strength, back strength, push-ups, sit-ups, Harvard step test, and sitting trunk flexion significantly increased in the Hatha Yoga exercise group after 16 weeks. Therefore, regular and continuous Yoga exercise was effective in improving body composition, serum lipids, and health-related fitness. Consequently, Yoga exercise could be effective for preventing cardiovascular disease caused by obesity in middle-aged women.

The Effect of Aerobic Resistance Training Circuit on Health-Related Physical Fitness, Blood Lipids and Cortisol in Postmenopausal Obese Women (유산소성 저항트레이닝 써킷이 폐경 후 비만여성의 건강체력, 혈중지질 및 코티졸에 미치는 영향)

  • The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of a 12 week aerobic resistance training circuit program on the health-related fitness, blood lipids, and cortisol in obese postmenopausal women. The subjects for the study were twenty obese postmenopausal women composed of the exercise group (n=10) and "no exercise" control group (n=10). The aerobic resistance training circuit program was conducted for 70 minutes 3 times a week for 12 weeks, in which the aerobic exercise consisted of 5 items each composed of 5 sets of aerobic exercise at 50-70% HRmax intensity for 1 minute for a total of 25 minutes and the resistance exercise consisted of 8 items conducted for a total of 25 minutes at 40-60% intensity of 1RM). In the exercise group, the body weight and BMI significantly decreased and the 20m shuttle run, sit-ups and sitting trunk flexion significantly increased. In the exercise group, the TC, LDL-C, and TG significantly decreased. Also, it was noted that the HDL-C was slightly higher in the exercise group than in the control group, but the difference was not statistically significant. The cortisol levels of the exercise group and control group at baseline were similar. However, after the aerobic resistance training circuit program, the exercise group had a significantly higher cortisol level than the control group. Therefore, regular and continuous aerobic resistance training was effective in improving the body composition, blood lipids and health-related fitness.

  • This study was conducted from November 25 to December 4, 2019, to unmask differences in physical fitness based on the weight class of high school Ssirum elite-players. A total of 28 high school Ssirum elite-players were compared and analyzed by measuring physical factors (muscle strength/power, agility, anaerobic power, aerobic ability, flexibility, and isokinetic muscle function) by weight class. Data were analyzed using SPSS ver. 23.0. One-way ANOVA was used for comparison between groups. There was no difference by weight class in terms of grip strength, sit-ups, sergeant jump, long jump, flexibility, side step, and reaction time. Evaluation of back muscle strength revealed that the group with more than 100 kg had greater strength than lower weight categories, whereas it was lower in the sit-ups, 20 m shuttle run and the relative values anaerobic power. Considering isokinetic muscle function, no difference was observed between the groups of back muscle strength and knee joint. The results of this study indicate that amongst the high school Ssirum elite-players, there is no difference in muscle power, flexibility, agility, and anaerobic average power per body weight, isokinetic trunk strength, and knee flexion strength, when evaluated according to weight class.

Effects of Dynamic Tubing Gait Training on Postural Alignment, Gait, and Quality of Life in Chronic Patients with Parkinson's Disease : Case Study (동적탄력튜빙 보행훈련 프로그램이 만성 파킨슨병 환자의 자세정렬과 보행능력과 삶의 질에 미치는 영향 : 사례연구)

  • The present study investigated the effects of dynamic tubing gait training(I and II) on the postural alignment, gait, and quality of life in chronic patients with Parkinson's disease. This study is based on the case study that recruited a total of 3 patients with chronic Parkinson's disease (Hoehn and Yahr Stage of 1 to 3 each one person). Dynamic tubing gait training (I and II) applied to chronic patients with Parkinson's disease for 25 sessions, 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week, over 5 weeks period. To investigate the effects of this study, evaluating using the postural alignment test, muscle activity tests, gait analysis, and quality of life scale for patient with Parkinson's disease. After the intervention of Dynamic tubing gait training (I and II), Trunk flexion was decreased. Also, during walking from initial contact (IC) to mid stance (Mst), muscle activity of Quadriceps, Hamstring, and Tibialis Anterior (TA) was increased and muscle activity of Gastrocnemius was decreased. The muscle activation of Erector Spinae (ES T12, L3) was increased in the H&Y I and III stages and decreased in the H&Y II stage. Length of gait line, single support line, ant/post position and lateral symmetry of center of pressure (COP) parameters improved. The spatio-temporal gait parameters including of step length, stride length, and velocity was increased, and cadence decreased. Further the quality of life of patients with Parkinson's disease was improved. Based on these findings, Dynamic tubing gait training (I and II) could be applied as a new approach to improve posture, gait, quality of life in chronic patients with Parkinson's disease for more than 5 years, whose drug resistance is halved.
