고령자 여성의 수중운동시 하지 근활성도 및 평형성 비교 분석

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to identify whether this has any effect on water exercise muscle activity and balance ability of elderly women, provide basic information that can help improve the quality of health and life of elderly women. For this, 9 experimental groups and 9 comparison groups of targeted muscle activity of the vastus lateralis, anterior tibial, biceps femoris, and gastrocnemius and the balance ability through the water exercises to a comparative analysis. The paired t-test was conducted in order to examine changes in the muscles activities and balance test between two groups, and differences were considered statistically significant at a p-value of less than 0.05. The results obtained from this study are given as in the following; 1. Muscle activity of the vastus lateralis in accordance with the water exercise experimental groups and comparison groups was statistically significant(p< .01) difference between the two groups and the muscle activity of the experimental group was significantly higher. 2. Muscle activity of the anterior tibial in accordance with the water exercise experimental groups and comparison groups was statistically significant(p< .01) difference between the two groups and the muscle activity of the experimental group was significantly higher. 3. Muscle activity of the biceps femoris in accordance with the water exercise experimental groups and comparison groups was statistically significant(p< .001) difference between the two groups and the muscle activity of the experimental group was significantly higher. 4. Muscle activity of the gastrocnemius in accordance with the water exercise experimental groups and comparison groups was statistically significant(p< .01) difference between the two groups and the muscle activity of the experimental group was significantly higher. 5. Right foot balance ability in accordance with the water exercise experimental groups and comparison groups was statistically significant(p< .01) difference between the two groups and the balance ability of the experimental group was significantly higher. 6. Left foot balance ability in accordance with the water exercise experimental groups and comparison groups was statistically significant(p< .01) difference between the two groups and the balance ability of the experimental group was significantly higher.
