Abstract

The purpose
of this study is to figure out the effect of an 8-week core stability training
participation on body composition and core function-related strength and
flexibility parameters of female university staff. The sample whose average age
is 33,92±4,371 was determined by random sample method; Control group (CG, n=17)
and Exercise Group (EG, n=19). EG participated in 3-day-a-week core stability
trainings for 8 weeks. Handgrip strength (HGS), back strength (BS), and leg
strength (LS); trunk muscle endurance (TME), trunk stability (TS), trunk
explosive strength (TES); trunk flexion (TFX), trunk extension (TEX), trunk
lateral flexion (TLF), height (H), body weight (BW), body mass index (BMI),
basal metabolic rate (BMR), body fat percent (BFP), waist-hip ratio (WHR),
total body fat mass (TBFM), total body water (TBW), visceral fat (VF)
measurements were done. Parametric independent t-test and paired t-test was
used for comparisons. Significance level p<.05 and confidence interval was
95%. Group comparison results showed no significant difference in body
composition parameters for EG and KG (p>.05). But in-group comparisons for
KG referred to significant differences in all parameters of body composition
for the post-test (p<.05). The comparisons of core function-related strength
parameters exposed significant differences in LS, BS, TE, TS and TES
(p<.05). It is revealed in in-group comparisons that significant differences
in all parameters for EG (p<.05), and in HGS_right, HGS_left
and in BS for CG (p <.05). Group comparisons of core function related-flexibility
the post-tests put forward significant differences in all parameters
(p<.05), whereas there were significant differences in in-group comparisons in
TF, TE, TLF_left for EG (p <.05) and in all parameters (p<.05)
for CG. It can be claimed that core stability training has a positive and direct
effect on strength whereas it has conservative effect on body composition.

KOR STABİLİTE ANTRENMANININ KADIN ÇALIŞANLARIN VÜCUT KOMPOZİSYONU VE KOR FONKSİYONA İLİŞKİN KUVVET VE ESNEKLİK PARAMETRELERİNE ETKİSİ

Abstract

Bu
çalışmanın amacı; sekiz haftalık kor stabilite antrenman programına katılımın
kadın üniversite çalışanlarının vücut kompozisyonu ve kor fonksiyona ilişkin
kuvvet ve esneklik parametrelerine etkisini belirlemektir. Ortalama yaşı 33,92±4,371
olan örneklem tesadüfi yöntemle belirlenmiştir: (Kontrol Grubu, KG, n=17; Egzersiz
Grubu, EG, n=19). EG, 8 hafta boyunca haftada 3 gün kor stabilite
antrenmanlarına katılmıştır. El kavrama kuvveti (EKK), sırt kuvveti (SK), bacak
kuvveti (BK), gövde kas dayanıklılığı (GKD), gövde stabilite (GS), gövde
patlayıcı kuvvet (GPK), gövde fleksiyon (GF), gövde ekstansiyon (GE), gövde
lateral fleksiyon (GLF), boy (B),  vücut
ağırlığı (VA), vücut kitle indeksi (VKİ), bazal metabolizma hızı (BMH), vücut
yağ yüzdesi (VYY), bel-kalça oranı (BKO), toplam vücut yağ ağırlığı (TVYA),
toplam vücut sıvısı (TVS) ve iç yağ (İY) ölçümleri yapılmıştır.
Karşılaştırmalarda parametrik bağımsız t-testi ve eşli t-testi uygulanmıştır.
Anlamlılık düzeyi p<0.05 güven aralığı %95 olarak kabul edilmiştir. EG ve KG
için gruplar arası karşılaştırmalarda vücut kompozisyonu parametrelerinde fark
görülmemiştir (p>.05). Ancak son ölçümlerin grup içi karşılaştırmalarında KG’de
vücut kompozisyonu parametrelerinin tamamında anlamlı fark vardır (p<.05).
Kor fonksiyona ilişkin kuvvet parametrelerinin gruplar arası karşılaştırmaları BK,
SK, GE, GS ve GPK’de anlamlı farklar ortaya koymuştur (p<.05). Kor
fonksiyona ilişkin kuvvet parametrelerinin grup içi karşılaştırmalarında EG için
tüm parametrelerde (p<.05), KG için EKK_sağ, EKK_sol ve
SK’de fark vardır (p <.05). Kor fonksiyona ilişkin esneklik parametrelerinin
gruplar arası karşılaştırmalarında tüm parametrelerde fark görülürken (p<.05),
grup içi karşılaştırmalar sonucu EG için GF, GE, GLF_sol ve GPK’de
(p<.05), KG için tüm parametrelerde fark (p<.05) oluşmuştur. Kor
stabilite antrenmanının kuvvet ve esnekliğe olumlu ve doğrudan, vücut
kompozisyonuna ise koruyucu etkisi olduğu ileri sürülebilir.
