PHYSICAL ACTIVITIES OF SOUTH KALIMANTAN PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTS OUTSIDE SCHOOL HOURS

The aim of physical education is to develop physical abilities. Good physical abilities have an impact on students' ability to think and concentrate on learning. Children aged 5 to 17 years are recommended to do physical activity with a duration of 60 minutes in the moderate to vigorous intensity category. Physical activity done more than 60 minutes a day can provide body health. Learning PE at school, all the time available for learning is not fully used effectively so that to gain physical fitness students must spend time doing physical activities outside of learning hours. The aim of this research is to determine the physical activity carried out by students outside school hours. The sample for this research was 174 students in elementary schools throughout South Kalimantan. This research uses quantitative descriptive research methods. The technique used in taking samples is purposive sampling. The instrument used to obtain research data was the IPAQ questionnaire. The research results showed that physical activity carried out by students with heavy activities was mostly carried out for 3 days with a percentage of 28%, the time range used was 60-90 minutes a day. Students who do moderate activities mostly do it for 2 days with a percentage of 24%, the time span used is less than 60 minutes a day. Students' walking activities are mostly carried out for 7 days with a percentage of 61%, the time range used is 60-90 minutes a day. Students do most of the sitting activities for 7 days with a percentage of 59%, the time range used is 60-90 minutes a day. Elementary school students do a lot of physical activity in the moderate category with a range of 600 – 6000 MET-minutes/week as much as 51.72%.

Relationship between Somatotype and Body Mass Index with the Successful Heading of Soccer Athletes

The background of the problem is that there are many influencing factors, one of which is the compatibility of the body type somatotype and BMI that supports the sport involved. In order to get maximum performance, a condition is needed for players who have good physical abilities, techniques, and tactics and are supported by good somatotype conditions.

Low gait speed is associated with low physical activity and high sedentary time following stroke

Purpose This study describes physical activity levels and factors associated with physical activity at the end of stroke rehabilitation. Methods Primary stroke survivors were assessed at completion of physical rehabilitation. Outcomes included physical activity (e.g. step count, moderate-vigorous physical activity duration) and sedentary time measured with the Sensewear Armband, gait speed, and cognition. The number of participants meeting physical activity recommendations was calculated. Differences in physical activity were examined between household ambulators (gait speed <0.4 m/s), limited community ambulators (0.4–0.8 m/s), and unlimited community ambulators (>0.8 m/s). The influence of age, cognition, and gait speed on physical activity was determined by multiple regression. Results Seventy-nine stroke survivors participated. Twenty-one participants achieved 30 min/day of moderate-vigorous physical activity accumulated in 10 min bouts. Unlimited community ambulators took more steps/day (median 4975 vs. 469 limited, 355 household, p < 0.001), had higher moderate-vigorous physical activity (median 74 min/day vs. 22 limited, 31 household, p < 0.001) and lower sedentary time (mean 1105 vs. 1239 limited, 1232 household minutes/day, p < 0.001). Age, gait speed, and cognition predicted 21.3% of the variance in moderate-vigorous physical activity (p = 0.001); adding employment status to the model predicted 57.3% of the variance in step count (p < 0.001). Conclusions Physical activity is low following stroke and should be a target for treatment, particularly in those with gait speeds ≤0.8 m/s. Implications for rehabilitation Seventy-three percent of stroke survivors performed ≥30 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity throughout the day. Twenty-seven percent of stroke survivors accumulated ≥30 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity in 10 minute bouts. Despite relatively good physical ability, daily step count was low in this sample. Those with gait speeds ≤0.8 m/s had lower physical activity levels and higher sedentary time.

Physical function and self-efficacy – Important aspects of health-related quality of life in individuals with hip osteoarthritis

Introduction: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis and the most common chronic joint disease in individuals over the age of 65 years. The condition is often associated with significant pain, stiffness, fatigue, and has a strong impact on physical function, mobility and quality of life. Objectives: The aim of the present study was to investigate the associations between health-related quality of life (HRQL), physical function and self-efficacy (the sense of being able to perform specific tasks), in individuals with X-ray-verified hip OA. The aim was also to determine factors explaining good perceived HRQL. Participants: Eighty-nine individuals with X-ray-verified hip OA in the age group 40–75 years participated in this study. The study sample predominantly consisted of females, n = 61 (69%), and the mean age was 62.5 years, range 39–76. Main outcome measures: For assessment of HRQL, the Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36), which is divided into the Physical Component Scale (PCS) and the Mental Component Scale (MCS), was used. Physical function was measured with one self-recorded instrument, the Hip Osteoarthritis Outcomes Score (HOOS Swedish version L.K 1.1), and two instruments using observation – the Body Awareness Scale – Movement Quality (BAS-MQ) and the Six Minute Walk Test (6MWT). Self-efficacy was evaluated using the Arthritis Self-Efficacy Scale (ASES). Results: The data indicated that HRQL (SF-36 PCS) had a significant correlation with both observed physical function and self-reported physical function. SF-36 PCS correlated significantly to all five subscales in HOOS, two of three subscales in BAS-MQ, 6MWT and all three subscales in ASES. Three subscales in HOOS, one subscale in ASES and the 6MWT together explained 58% (R2) of the variance in SF-36 PCS. Conclusion: The results of the current study indicated that good physical ability and good self-efficacy are important for HRQL in subjects with hip OA. This knowledge ought to influence future rehabilitation strategies. The treatment strategies for individuals with OA ought to be directed not only to the symptoms of the disease, but also to the individual's possibilities of gaining perceived control over the consequences of the disease including the HRQL.

Background: Retirement is an important and turning point of the professional life and its effects on the postretirement life process can be studied from different angles. Objectives: The current study aimed to evaluate the psychological trauma in retired women, and provide an appropriate strategy to improve their mental health. Materials and Methods: The current study was a descriptive survey. Population under study included all retired personnel of the Army in 2011. In the current study, 535 women were selected from all retired personnel country wide in 2011 by cluster sampling method. The research tool was the 28-item general health questionnaire (GHQ-28). Results: The results of the current study showed that 50.5% of the retired women were normal, 32.9% suffered from mild, 13.8% suffered from moderate and 2.8% suffered from severe disorders in mental health total score. Conclusions: Today, due to increased longevity, people still have many years ahead after retirement, which even in a long period of that have good physical abilities, psychological readiness and willingness for occupation and accepting occupational responsibilities. Besides increased longevity, decrease in the average retirement age also emphasizes on the need to evaluate the problems of this period of life, and the necessity of planning to prepare them to cope with retirement phenomenon and its post adaptation, especially living with the sense of usefulness and happiness. The results of the current study showed that the mild disorder has high prevalence among retired women. Hence, it seems that planning to find its relative factors and performing the integrative actions can be useful to prevent its progress to the sever disorder.
