Influence of Health Related Fitness on the Morphofunctional Condition of Second Mature Aged Women

Abstract

To analyze the influence of health-related fitness on the condition of second mature aged women. Participants: 65 women divided into two groups. Group 1–40 women, (43.33 ± 0.93) years old and group 2–25 women (44.40 ± 0.93) years old. The participants trained for 8 months, three times a week for 1 h. Group 1 trained dance aerobics (Monday), strength fitness (Wednesday) and stretching (Friday). Group 2 trained only stretching. The body length and mass, handgrip strength test, vital capacity, blood pressure, heart rate, Stange and Genchi tests, and motion amplitude in joints were evaluated before and after the program. The significance of the differences between the groups was evaluated by Student’s criterion (t) and Rosenbaum (Q). The different intensity of the health-related effect was confirmed at the end of the program. Physiometric indicators significantly increased in group 1. The complex physical activity led to a decrease in heart rate. The results of the Stange and Genchi tests significantly increased. Goniometric indicators of group 2 increased. The comparative analysis of the participants indicators confirms the generalized and higher health-related effect of the complex fitness program. The effect of such a program showed an increase of the adaptive potential, a significant increase in the functional capabilities of women, and the optimization of the studied indicators. With the same time expenditure for health-related fitness, the complex program has a more multifaceted effect in comparison with stretching.

The influence of health-improving fitness classes on the degree of fat deposition in women of the second mature age

“…The pronounced effect of a comprehensive healthimproving program was confirmed in another study [17]. The use of classes of various orientations in the weekly cycle provided a pronounced improvement in morphological and functional indicators, an expansion of functional capabilities, an increase in adaptive potential.…”

Dynamics of Body Type Indicators of Adult Women Under the Influence of Aqua Fitness

“…Knowledge about the impact of fitness on the correction of physical condition of overweight women (Borovik, 2013;Andrieieva et al, 2019;Goncharova et al, 2020) were further developed. Information about methods of physical training with use physical activity of various types based on body composition (Shutova & Vysotskaya, 2019), some issues of complex aqua fitness classes to improve women's physical fitness (Shalaeva, et al, 2018;Podrihalo et al, 2020) were continued.…”

Methods for nonparametric statistics in scientific research. Overview. Part 1.

“…In [27], the authors applied the method of mathematical statistics (Rosenbaum Q-test) when finding the optimal technology for developing professional competencies among the target group of students studying business informatics. In [28], the exercise training effect on the health and condition in two groups of women of different ages was assessed by Student t-test (t) and Rosenbaum Q-test (Q). In [29], to compare and evaluate the data in five groups of 110 students, in a study on how English can be effectively implemented in the training of students of technical specialties for developing professional skills, the statistical method with Rosenbaum Q-test was used.…”
