摘要
背景:瑜伽是一种被广泛认可的有氧运动形式,近年来越来越受欢迎,对呼吸功能有充分的积极影响。然而,有一个有限的研究机构调查瑜伽进行不同的持续时间的影响。因此,本研究旨在探讨为期4周的不同持续时间(60分钟和30分钟)的哈达瑜伽(HY)运动计划对久坐年轻人肺功能的急性和慢性影响。方法:将52例15 ~ 16岁久坐不动者随机分为3组:60 min HY组(60 min HY, n = 21)、30 min HY组(30 min HY, n = 15)和对照组(CG, n = 16)。60名mHY组和30名mHY组每周进行两次瑜伽练习,持续4周,而CG组的参与者则按照身体活动指南进行指导,但没有进行瑜伽练习。使用肺活量计评估肺功能。结果:与30 mHY组和CG组相比,60 mHY组4周后用力肺活量增加(P = 0.002, 95%可信区间[CI] = -1.10- -0.07)。60 mHY组1秒用力呼气量(P < 0.001, 95% CI = -0.03-0.54)改善。CG组呼气峰流量改善最小(P = 0.004, 95% CI =-1.23 ~ - 0.32)。肺活量25% ~ 75% (FEF25/75)的用力呼气流量在60 mHY时变化最大(P = 0.004, 95% CI=-1.72 ~ - 0.49)。用力呼气时间随时间变化,但各组间无差异。结论:为期4周的HY项目,特别是每次60分钟,可显著改善久坐的年轻参与者的肺功能。研究结果表明,瑜伽持续时间越长,对肺系统的影响越大,因此,我们建议应该调查瑜伽课程对不同人群的影响。
Enhancing Pulmonary Function in Children with a 4-week Yoga Exercise Program: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
Background: Yoga is a widely recognized form of aerobic exercise that has gained significant popularity in recent years, with well-documented positive effects on respiratory functions. However, there is a limited body of research investigating the impact of yoga performed for various durations. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the acute and chronic effects of a 4-week hatha yoga (HY) exercise program with different durations (60 min and 30 min) on pulmonary function in sedentary young individuals.
Methods: A total of 52 sedentary individuals aged 15-16 years were randomly divided into three groups: 60 min HY group (60 min HY, n = 21), 30 min HY group (30 min HY, n = 15), and control group (CG, n = 16). The 60 mHY and 30 mHY groups underwent a yoga exercise protocol twice a week for 4 weeks, while the participants in the CG were instructed on the physical activity guidelines but did not perform yoga exercises. Pulmonary function profile was assessed using a spirometer device.
Results: The forced vital capacity of the groups in the 60 mHY group increased after 4 weeks compared to the 30 mHY and CG groups (P = 0.002, 95% confidence interval [CI] = -1.10- -0.07). The forced expiratory volume in one second (P < 0.001, 95% CI = -0.03-0.54) improved in the 60 mHY group. Peak expiratory flow was least improved in the CG (P = 0.004, 95% CI =-1.23 to - 0.32). Forced expiratory flow between 25% and 75% (FEF25/75) of vital capacity changed the most at 60 mHY (P = 0.004, 95% CI=-1.72 to - 0.49). The forced expiratory time varied with time but did not differ across the groups.
Conclusions: A 4-week HY program, particularly with 60-min sessions, significantly improved pulmonary function in sedentary young participants. The findings suggest that the longer the duration of HY, the greater the effects on the pulmonary system, and therefore, we suggest that the effects of yoga programs on different populations should be investigated.
