Abstract

The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of nordic walking on body composition and physical fitness in obese women with intellectual disability(ID). The subjects in experimental group(n=12) participated in nordic walking program for 12 weeks while those in control group(n=9) was controled not to participate in physical activities. After the training, weight, muscle mass and fat mass% showed significant improvement in experimental group. In physical fitness, strength, balance and coordination in experimental group showed significant improvement. In conclusion, these results suggest that nordic walking can be recommended as an effective intervention program to change body composition and to improve physical fitness in obese women with ID.

본 연구는 체지방률이 30% 이상인 비만 지적장애 성인여성들을 대상으로 노르딕워킹의 신체조성과 체력에 대한 효과를 검증하고자 하였다. 이를 위해, 21명의 대상자들을 실험군(12명)과 통제군(9명)으로 무작위 할당하여 구분한 후 12주 동안 실험을 진행하였다. 실험군은 주 2회의 노르딕워킹 프로그램에 참여하였으며, 통제군은 비교적 비활동적인 일상생활을 하게 하였다. 이러한 과정을 통해 다음과 같은 연구 결과를 얻었다. 신체조성에서 근육량과 체지방률이 실험집단에서 프로그램 참여 후에 유의한 개선 효과를 나타냈다. 또한 체력요인의 변화에서 있어서는 근력과 평형성, 협응력이 유의한 향상을 보였다. 이러한 결과를 통해 볼 때, 노르딕워킹 프로그램은 비만 지적장애 성인여성의 신체조성 변화와 체력 증진에 대체로 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 판단된다. 다만, 일부 요인에 대해서는 대상자의 특성이나 프로그램의 목표를 고려하여 운동 빈도와 운동 강도, 운동 내용 등을 조절할 필요가 있다.
