Abstract

The purpose of this study was to observe self-reliance fitness and growth hormones in obese elderly women. Twenty-four females over the age of 65 years, who did not exercise regularly, were chosen as test subjects. All subjects were evaluated pre- and post-test. The results of this study were as follows; Results related to the experimental group revealed that there were statistically significant differences between the mean scores pre- and post-test in self-reliance fitness. Results related to the experimental group revealed that there were statistically significant differences between the mean scores pre- and post-test in growth hormone. Overall, participation in a 12-week combined exercise program had a positive impact on the self-reliance fitness and growth hormone in the obese elderly women. Based on the results of this study, obese elderly women are encouraged to participate in a combined exercises program on a regular basis.

본 연구는 규칙적으로 운동에 참여하지 않는 65세 이상의 비만 여성노인 24명을 대상으로 12주 복합운동이 비만 여성노인의 자립생활체력과 성장호르몬에 미치는 영향을 구명하기 위하여 운동 전과 운동 후의 자립생활체력 변인과 성장호르몬을 측정하여 비교분석하였다. 본 연구 결과 자립생활체력은 복합운동집단이 유의하게 증가하였고, 성장호르몬도 복합운동집단 유의하게 증가를 하였다. 이상의 결과 규칙적인 12주 복합운동이 비만 여성 노인들의 자립생활체력과 성장호르몬의 변화에 긍정적인 영향을 미친 것으로 생각되며, 향후 비만 여성노인들의 체력과 신체여건에 알맞은 효율적인 복합운동프로그램이 지속적으로 개발되고 노년기의 건강유지 및 삶의 질을 높이는데 도움을 줄 수 있는 후속 연구가 다양하게 이루어져야 할 것으로 사료된다.
