The Effect on Exercise Addiction and Anxiety Levels in Breathing Exercises in Bodybuilding Athletes

Abstract

Abstract Exercise is considered a promising and emerging treatment for individuals recovering from addiction. The purpose of this research is to examine the effect of breathing exercises on exercise addiction and anxiety levels in bodybuilding athletes. The population of the research consisted of 20 test subjects and 20 control volunteers, male and female participants, who exercised in the fitness center of the Asis sports complex located at Van Yüzüncü Yıl University in Van province. Breathing exercises were performed on the subject group for 40 minutes, 2 days a week for 10 weeks. The survey was measured twice in total for the subject and control groups, before the exercise program and at the end of the exercise program. Personal information form, Exercise Addiction Scale (EAS) and Beck Anxiety Scale (BAS) were used as data collection tools in the study. To find the relationship between breathing exercises and exercise addiction and anxiety levels, Shapiro-Wilk analysis was tested and T-test was used to compare two independent groups since normal distribution was detected. When we look at the control group, there was only a difference in the comparison of exercise addiction results, while in the experimental group, a significant difference was found between the performance of breathing exercises and the comparison of exercise addiction and anxiety results. It can be said that breathing exercises reduce exercise addiction and anxiety levels in individuals doing bodybuilding sports. It is very important to maintain balance and have a healthy approach when exercising. In order to benefit from the benefits of exercise to the maximum extent, personalized programs should be prepared and implemented under expert guidance. It may be recommended that Breathing Exercise studies be applied to other sports branches as well. Keywords: Bodybuilding Athletes, Breathing Exercises, Exercise Addiction, Anxiety
