Effect of a Maepsi Exercise Program on the Ground Reaction Force Variables of middle-aged women during Gait
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect on the vertical ground reaction force, the elapsed time, and the center of pressure factors during gait by maepsi exercise program, which is a whole body exercise, to middle-aged women for 8 weeks. A total of 25 subjects participated in this study, 13 in the exercise group(age, 41±4.4 years; heigh, 162.5±5.8cm; weight, 57.8±6.7kg; body mass, 21.9±2.4kg/m2) and 12 in the control group(age, 41.1±5.6 years; height, 160.9±5.5 cm; \uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000\uf000 Corresponding author (E-mail: [email protected]) 2 박희준.권문석 Journal of the Korean Applied Science and Technology 763 weight, 576.2±8.1 kg; body mass, 21.7±2.9 kg/m2). In the exercise group, the maepsi exercise program consisting of 7 areas, 23 types and 77 movements, was conducted 3 times a week for 8 weeks. Two-way repeated measures ANOVA was performed to verify the ground reaction force factors during gait, and the post-test was analyzed with bonferroni adjustment(\ue0e5 \ue047 \ue053\ue03d\ue038). In the exercise group, compared to the control group, the exercise group showed higher values than the control group in the elapsed time to FMWA and FPO, vertical ground reaction force at FMWA and FPO, and RMS factors of COP in the AP direction. Therefore, it was found that the 8-week maepsi exercise program improved the acceleration and deceleration exercise functions of middle-aged women who performed gait.
