Abstract

Abstract The purpose of this research is to examine the impact of hydraulic fitness exercises on some physical parameters and body perception of the middle aged sedentary women. A total of 60 women participated in the study voluntarily. Hydraulic station fitness exercises were administered for a duration of 12 weeks. Body weight, body mass index, body flexibility of the women and their body perception levels were determined. Statistically significant differences were found in the variable as follows, the weight (t=11.4, p<0.05), BMI (Body Mass Index) (t=3.29, p<0.05), BFP (Body Fat Percentage) (t=10.8, p<0.05), flexibility (t=-11.6, p<0.05), sit ups (t=-16.7, p<0.05), and body perception (t=-12.3, p<0.05). Weight gain was observed for women in the control group and decrease in flexibility and ability to do sit ups. However, a weight loss was observed for the women in the experimental group and it was determined and found that their BMI, flexibility and ability to do sit ups and even satisfaction of physical space improved positively.

水力健身运动对中年女性身体知觉及部分身体参数影响的研究

摘要本研究旨在探讨水力健身运动对久坐中年女性某些身体参数和身体知觉的影响。共有60名女性自愿参加了这项研究。液压站健身训练持续12周。测定女性的体重、体重指数、身体柔韧性和身体感知水平。体重(t=11.4, p<0.05)、身体质量指数(BMI) (t=3.29, p<0.05)、体脂率(BFP) (t=10.8, p<0.05)、柔韧性(t=-11.6, p<0.05)、仰卧起坐(t=-16.7, p<0.05)、体感(t=-12.3, p<0.05)各变量差异均有统计学意义。对照组的女性体重增加，柔韧性和做仰卧起坐的能力下降。然而，观察到实验组女性的体重有所下降，并且确定并发现她们的BMI，柔韧性和做仰卧起坐的能力，甚至对物理空间的满意度都有了积极的改善。
