Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes in fitness and obesity-related blood lipids by applying the 12-week aquatic exercise program to postmenopausal women. For this purpose, two groups of exercise group and control group were applied four times a week for 60 minutes aquatic exercise program, and the following conclusions were obtained.<BR> First, according to the treatment of 12 weeks aquatic exercise program, there were significant interaction effects in muscular endurance, quickness, and flexibility in behavioral fitness. On the other hand, there was no significant difference in equilibrium.<BR> Second, obesity-related blood lipids showed significant interaction effects in TG, TC, HDL, and LDL following 12 weeks of aquatic exercise.<BR> The aquatic exercise program, which is the treatment program of this study, is considered to be effective for improving fitness and blood lipid. However, there was no significant effect on improving balance among fitness. This may be due to the lack of a major program on the equilibrium factor among aquatic exercise programs.
