The Effect of 8 Weeks Inspiratory Muscle Training and Taekwondo Exercise on Physical Fitness, CRP, Pulmonary Function and Isokinetic Muscular Function in Middle Aged Male Smokers
Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to compare and analyze the effects of Taekwondo training including 8-week inspiratory muscle training on physical fitness, CRP, pulmonary function and isokinetic muscle function of middle-aged male smokers. METHODS 21 middle-aged male smokers were divided into 3 groups: inspiratory muscle training+Taekwondo training group (n=7), Taekwondo training group (n=7) and control group (n=7). Measurement variables were physical fitness (Body composition, muscular strength, muscular endurance, flexibility, cardiorespiratory function, balance), CRP, pulmonary function (FVC, FEV1, FEV1/FVC), and isokinetic muscle function (peak torque %BW, average power %BW). The repeated measure ANOVA was conducted to analyze the differences and interactions between groups and periods. In the case of any difference, t-test was conducted to perform post hoc test between pre and post treatment and the contrast was conducted to perform post hoc test between groups. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used between groups, and repeated measures t-test was used between groups. All significance levels were verified at .05. RESULTS As a result, the combined exercise group also showed statistically significant changes in the physical fitness (Body composition, muscular strength, muscular endurance, flexibility, cardiorespiratory function), pulmonary function (FEV1, FEV1/FVC), and isokinetic muscle function (peak torque %BW). CONCLUSIONS Consequently, it shows that 8 weeks Taekwondo training including inspiratory muscle training made a positive effect on fat content, muscular strength, muscular endurance, cardio respiratory fitness, R-extension in peak torque %BW in middle-aged male smokers.
