Abstract

The objective of the research was to analyze the change of the record of the dolphin kick as well as the body composition and healthy fitness and to compare the effect of the different type of exercise programs; circuit weight training and core stability exercise. We divided into two groups of eleven people; one group was trained with complex programs of core stability exercise(CSE, n=11), the other was with circuit weight training(CWT, n=11) programs three times a week for 12 weeks for 100 minutes each session. Experimental data were analysed by SPSS 12.0 using two-way ANOVA with repeated measure. WHR and %FAT of body composition significantly decreased in two groups of exercising program(p<0.05). Weight significantly decreased only in core stability exercise group(p<0.05). The flexibility significantly increased only in core stability exercise group(p<0.05). The lumbar strength and lumbar strength ratio significantly increased only in circuit weight training group(p<0.05), but lumbar endurance strength significantly increased in two groups together(p<0.05). The record of the underwater dolphin kick significantly improved in two groups(p<0.05). According to the results both groups showed the positive effects in every measurement parameters. Therefore, it could be concluded that both of the exercise programs are suggested as the effective complex programs to every swimmer including amateur who has a goal to shorten their record of the underwater dolphin kick.
