Increasing lung capacity and cardiovascular ability by Mosesahi gymnastics in Gorontalo State University students

Abstract

Cardiovascular corroborate and salutary can be done by adolescents through physical exercises or gymnastics regularly. Aerobic exercise is included in the physical exercise type. If someone does aerobics regularly, it influences the body's health because aerobics is an exercise that needs oxygen to form its energy persistently and rhythmically. It's assumed that the person who does several activities and be able to follow the movements combination that being systematically has good lungs, heart, and blood vessel. Furthermore, to cope with problem of low capacity of lungs and low cardiovascular ability of the students, the solution is by doing MOSESAHI (Abbreviation: Mo'o Sehati, Mo'o Sanangi Hilaw: make people health, happy and cheerful). This paper employed factorial program experimental, with a sample 72 students of the State University of Gorontalo. Data analysis used the statistical test analysis of variance. The result concludes that the changing of lung capacity and cardiovascular ability caused by Mosesahi gymnastic exercise done twice a week for 20 min with an intensity of 60%, 70%, and 80% is better than once and three times a week. By exercising three times a week with thirty minutes and 60%, 70%, 80% of intensity, the increasing is better than thirty minutes with frequency once and three times a week as well as in frequency three times a week with forty minutes duration, regularly 80% intensity, the increasing is better than at frequency once or twice a week
