여성 척수장애인의 저항성 트레이닝이 신체조성 및 혈중지질에 미치는 효과

Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of 8-week resistance training on body composition and blood lipids in women with spinal cord injury.BR Method: The subjects of the study were ten women with spinal cord injuries living in the metropolitan area, to whom the purpose and method of this study were explained in detail. Informed consent was obtained from the subjects who volunteered to participate, and they were recruited. As an exercise method, an 8-week resistance exercise program was applied. Because of the covid-19 situation and movement restrictions of the spinal cord due to injury, they were allowed to participate in exercise in a personal space, which was confirmed by using messenger and video conferencing system. The exercise strength and duration were conducted using an elastic thera band with a strength of 45% based on 1RM measured in advance, which was conducted for 25 minutes, and the RPE was maintained at about 12. As measurement variables, body composition and blood lipid were measured. The SPSS 25.0 version was used for all statistical data processing, and the mean and standard deviation were calculated through descriptive statistical analysis. To verify the effect of 8-week resistance training, the analysis was conducted using paired t-test. All statistical significance levels were set to α=.05.BR Result: The results of this study are as follows. 1) In the variables of body composition, weight, skeletal muscle mass, body fat mass, and body fat percentage did not show a significant effect, but the effect of maintaining was confirmed. 2) In the case of blood lipids, HDL-C showed a significantly elevated effect (p.05).BR Conclusion: As a result of 8 weeks of resistance training for women with spinal cord injury, it was confirmed that there was no improvement in body composition, but the effect of maintenance was confirmed, and in the case of blood lipids, HDL-C was improved. Participation in resistance training for women with spinal cord injury can prevent health deterioration, and it is thought that long term training should be applied for high level improvement.
