7-WEEK STEP-AEROBICS EXERCISES’ EFFECT ON SEDENTARY WOMEN’S BODY COMPOSITION

Abstract

To the study which is conducted to determine the 7-week step-aerobics exercises’ effect on sedentary women’s body composition, 20 female individuals with no health issues, who have just started exercising at Temel Reis Fitness Club in Niğde province, whose mean age is 31 ± 70, mean height164 ± 60, and mean weight 67 ± 88 voluntarily participated. The participants were subjected to step-aerobic exercises three times a week for 40-50 minutes, the volume of which is %60-70. The participants' body composition measurements, which are height, weight, fat and muscle ratios, body liquid levels, were conducted before and after the exercise program with Bioimpedance measurement tool. The analysis of the obtained data is done by using the SPSS 21.00 package program on a personal computer. Paired t-test method was used in the comparison of the pre and post-test values of the participants. As a result of the conducted study, it is seen that there is a significant decrease (p<0,05) in the percentage of the body weight and body fat percentages of the participants. As a result, it is determined that regularly and long-term conducted step-aerobics exercises have effects on sedentary females’ body composition in a positive way.
