Abstract
Background. Music has been seen as a motivator to help individuals who are not persistent enough to do a full set of exercises. However, the effect of long-term using music has not been determined, especially for amateur students who participated in Physical Education courses. Objectives: The purpose of the study was to find out the effect of popular music on female physical fitness students when participating in physical education courses. Methods. Seventy-three healthy female students were chosen and divided into three groups, of which 24 female students were in the 15-week experimental group, another 24 female students were in the 7-week experimental group, and the 25 female students remaining were in 15-week training without music. The music tempos were classified into three parts of a training session such as the warm-up (90-120 bpm), training (120-150 bpm), and cool-down (60-90 bpm). Results. The results indicated that the application of popular music improved speed (F (2,68) =13.35, p=0.000), agility (F (2,28) =11.93, p=0.000), maximum aerobic speed (F (2,68) =4.93, p=0.01), and decreased rating perceived exertion value when compared between the use of music groups and no music in all three sessions (warm-up, training, and cool-down). However, it showed unchanged in the core strength (F (2,68) =0.006, p=0.994), power of the legs (F (2,68) =0.034, p=0.967), and strength of the hand (F (2,68) =0.229, p=0.796). Besides, there was no difference in the effect of music on differences in long-term experimental times between 7-week and 15-week groups in all tests and the rating perceived exertion index, too. Conclusion. Long-term using popular music (7e vs. 15e) did not affect female students’ fitness in Physical Education courses. However, it can be said that popular music has been a beneficial tool to improve physical fitness and create a dynamic practice environment in physical education courses.
期刊介绍:
The editorial policy of The Annals of Applied Sport Science (Ann. Appl. Sport Sci.) follows the multi-disciplinary purposes of the sports science to promote the highest standards of scientific study referring to the following fields: • Sport Physiology and its related branches, • Sport Management and its related branches, • Kinesiology and Sport medicine and its related branches, • Sport Psychology and its related branches, • Motor Control and its related branches, • Sport Biomechanics and its related branches, • Sociology of Sport and its related branches, • History of Sport and its related branches, • Exercise, Training, Physical Activity and Health, • Physical Education and Learning. The emphasis of the journal is on the human sciences, broadly defined, and applied to sport and exercise that is defined inclusively to refer to all forms of human movement that aim to maintain or improve physical and mental well-being, create or improve social relationships, or obtain results in competition at all levels. The animal projects also can be evaluated with the decision of Editorial Boards.
