Investigation of the Effect of Pilates Exercises as Recreational Activity on Functional Movement Screen Scores in Women

Abstract

In this study, It was aimed to examine the effect of recreational Pilates exercises on functional movement analysis scores in women. 34 sedentary women volunteers participated in the study in a private gym located in Turkey-Istanbul. In our study, within the scope of pre and post-test; Anthropometric measurements and functional movement screen test battery were applied. After the pre-tests obtained from the participants before the study, the participants in the study group (SG) continued their Pilates exercises for 60 minutes, 3 days a week for 8 weeks, while the control group (CG) continued their program with moderate-intensity fixed resistance exercises in the gym. SPSS 21.0 package program was used for statistical analysis. According to the results of the statistical analysis, both dominant and non-dominant pre-post-test within-group development differences of the study and control groups were found to be statistically significant (p˂0.01). In the intergroup comparison of the total FMS pre- and post-test change scores of the Study and Control Groups, the difference in development between the Study and Control groups was found to be statistically significant in favor of the Study Group (p=0.001). As a result, besides the positive effects on fat and muscle ratios of female participating in recreational pilates exercises, it was determined that the content of pilates exercises was compatible with functional movement screen and improved functional movement screen results. It is foreseen that possible injuries will be prevented and an increase in performance will be achieved by examining one and both sides and eliminating asymmetries.

Rekreatif Aktivite Olarak Pilates Egzersizlerinin Kadınlarda Fonksiyonel Hareket Analizi Skorları Üzerindeki Etkisinin İncelenmesi

Öz

Çalışmada, kadınlarda rekreatif olarak yapılan pilates egzersizlerinin fonksiyonel hareket analizi skorlarına etkisini incelemek amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmaya Türkiye-İstanbul İl’inde bulunan özel bir spor salonunda sedanter 34 kadın gönüllü katılmıştır. Çalışmamızda ön ve son test kapsamında; antropometrik ölçümler ve fonksiyonel hareket analizi test bataryası uygulanmıştır. Çalışma öncesi katılımcılardan elde edilen ön testlerden sonra çalışma grubunda yer alan katılımcılar (ÇG) 8 hafta boyunca haftada 3 gün 60 dakika pilates çalışmalarına devam ederken, kontrol grubu (KG) spor salonunda orta düzey şiddette sabit direnç egzersizleri ile programlarına devam etmişlerdir. İstatistiksel analizler için SPSS 21.0 paket programı kullanılmıştır. İstatistiksel analiz sonuçlarına göre Çalışma ve kontrol gruplarının hem dominant, hem de non-dominant ön-son test grup içi gelişim farkları istatistiksel olarak anlamlı tespit edilmiştir (p˂0,01). Çalışma ve Kontrol Grubunun total FMS ön ve son test değişim skorlarının gruplar arası karşılaştırılmasında ise Çalışma ve kontrol grubu arasındaki gelişim farkı Çalışma Grubu lehinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı olarak tespit edilmiştir (p=0,001). Sonuç olarak rekreatif pilates egzersizlerine katılım sağlayan kadınların yağ ve kas oranları üzerinde olumlu etkiler görülmesinin yanı sıra pilates egzersizlerinin içeriği, fonksiyonel hareket analizi ile uyumlu olup fonksiyonel hareket analizi sonuçlarında gelişim sağladığı tespit edilmiştir. Tek ve çift taraflı olarak incelenmesi ve asimetrilerin giderilmesiyle olası yaralanmaların önüne geçileceği ve performans anlamında artış sağlayacağı öngörülmektedir.
