지속적 및 간헐적 달리기 운동이 남자 대학생의 유산소성 운동능력 및 신체구성에 미치는 영향

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of continuous and intermittent running on the aerobic capacity and body composition of male college students. In this study 20 male college students attending G-city University without medical history were selected as subjects. These subjects were randomly assigned to continuous exercise group (n=10) and intermittent exercise group (n=10). The exercise program was performed at 50 minutes per day for 10 weeks, 3 times a week and at 50-80% of the maximum heart rate. The maximum oxygen uptake, oxygen uptake at anaerobic threshold, cardiac output, ventilation, and duration of exercise were measured as the aerobic capacity. Also, body composition, body fat percentage, waist to hip ratio, body fat mass, were measured and analyzed. Based on the results of the study, the following results were obtained. First, there was a significant difference (p.05) in the duration of exercise as a result of analyzing the pre-and post change by performing continuous and intermittent running for 10 weeks, while the other variables showed the same pre-and post change in both continuous and intermittent running groups. Second, there was a significant difference (p.05) in the body fat(%), waist to hip ratio, body fat mass as a result of analyzing the pre-and post change by performing continuous and intermittent running for 10 weeks. Therefore, intermittent exercise with continuous exercise may also be an effective exercise method for increasing potential aerobic capacity and reducing body fat in changes in body composition.
