In this study, the normal group and possible sarcopenia(PS) group were divided by the criteria for sarcopenia diagnostic based on the 7th period data of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. An independent t-test and logistic regression was performed for the difference between the two groups. As a result, the PS group was older, and height, weight, and BMI were all lower. The waist circumference was significantly lower in men but significantly higher in women. According to the quality of life by domain, the frequency of impairment in daily activities in exercise capacity was 8.28 fold in men and 15.52 fold in women. In addition, aerobic exercise regularity was 19% and 26% lower in the PS, and strength exercise regularity was practiced was 52% and 43% lower.

최근 경제의 발전과 의학의 발달로 인하여 인간의 수명은 점차 연장됨에 따라, 노인인구도 급격히 증가하고 있다. 40세 이상 여성 인구도 8.998천명으로 전체 여성의 38%를 차지하며 이는 매년 증가할 것이다. 그리하여 전체 인구에 대한 폐경 여성의 점유율도 급격히 증가하고 있다. 폐경 이후 $5{\sim}10$년 동안 매년 $2{\sim}4%$씩 골농도가 감소하고 있기 때문에 폐경기 여성을 위협하는 주요 질환 중 하나가 골다공증이다. 하지만 골다공증은 뚜렷한 자각증상이 없어 골 기형 및 골절이 발생하기 전에는 조기발견이 어렵다. 골다공증은 모든 중년 여성의 건강문제이므로 지역사회에서 골절 발생 위험율을 줄일 수 있도록 골다공증 예방을 위한 건강관리가 필요하다. 본 연구의 목적은 지역사회에서 적용할 수 있는 골다공증 예방 프로그램을 개발하여 그 효과를 검정한 후 지역사회 중년 여성 건강증진 프로그램으로 활용코저 함에 있다. 골다공증 예방 프로그램은 운동과 교육으로 구성하였으며, 12주 동안 점핑 동작 위주의 에어로빅과 스텝퍼 운동과 근력강화운동(최대 심박수의 $70%{\sim}80%$, $70{\sim}80$분, 3회/주)을 병행하여 실시하였고, 교육은 운동과 칼슘 섭취의 중요성을 건강 신념 이론에 근거하여 자기 효능감을 증대시키는 교육을 하여 지속적인 운동 실천과 칼슘식이 섭취를 하도록 하였다. 대상자는 서울시 일개 보건소에서 골감소증으로 진단받은 폐경 여성으로 실험군 19명과 대조군 19명이었다. 골다공증 예방 프로그램의 효과는 골밀도, DPD ratio, osteocalcin, 일일 평균 칼슘섭취량, 일일 열량 소모량, 배근력, 최대 산소 섭취량, 제지방량과 건강신념 변수로 측정하였다. 수집된 자료는 PC SPSS 8.0 프로그램을 이용하여 대상자의 일반적 특성은 실수와 백분율로 실험군과 대조군의 동질성 검사는 t-test, $x^2-test$ 및 Fisher exact test를 이용하였고, 두 집단 간 결과변수들의 중재 전후의 차이는 t-test로 분석하였다. 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 1) $L_{2-4}$ 골밀도는 실험군이 대조군에 비하여 유의하게 높았다. 2) DPD ratio와 osteocalcin은 두 집단간 유의한 차이가 없었다. 3) 배근력은 실험군에서 대조군보다 유의하게 증가하였으나, 제지방량과 최대 산소 섭취량은 유의한 차이가 없었다.

수공구 사용시 과도한 힘은 작업성 근골격계 질환을 일으킬 수 있는 주요 원인중 하나이다. 이와 관련하여, 수공구 파지시 인체 내부에 부과되는 근력과 외적으로 작용된 힘 간의 비율을 이해하는 것이 중요하며, 이는 근육에 부과되는 과도한 힘을 최소화 시키고, 작업에 필요한 힘의 효율성을 극대화 시키는데 필수적이라 할 수 있다. 이러한 비율과 관련하여 많은 연구가 되어 왔으나, 대부분 수리적 인체역학적 모델과 같은 간접적 추정 방법에 의거하고 있는 실정이다. 이러한 인체역학적 모델을 검증하고 개선하기 위하여 해부용 팔 (cadaver)을 활용한 직접적인 근력과 악력 측정이 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 해부용 팔을 이용하여 상지 굴근(hand flexor)을 자동으로 제어하고 근력과 함께 악력을 측정할 수 있는 Hand Motion Simulator를 개발하고, 이를 통하여 다양한 사이즈의 손잡이 파지시 요구되는 근력과 외적으로 적용된 악력을 비교함으로써 수공구 손잡이 사이즈에 따른 근력의 효율성에 대하여 측정을 해 보았다. 또한, 적용된 굴근 (FDP & FDS) 간의 힘 비율에 따른 파지법의 차이를 조사해 보았다. 내부에 주어진 근력은 외부로 작용된 악력보다 5.3배 높은 부하가 작용하였으며 이러한 수공구 손잡이 파지시 힘의 효율성 역시 FDP 와 FDS 간의 비율이 3:2 였을 때, 그리고 손잡이 크기가 작을수록 높은 결과를 보였다. 반대로 손잡이의 크기가 커질수록 힘의 효율성은 저하되었다. 또한, 손가락 관절 각도의 경우 FDP와 FDS간의 비율에 따라 상이한 자세를 나타내었다. FDP 굴근의 비율이 높을 경우 손가락 끝마디 관절 (DIP) 의 굴곡을 보였으며, FDS 굴근 비율이 높을 경우 손가락 두 번째 관절(PIP)의 굴곡을 보였다. 본 연구를 통한 결과는 추후 상지작업자에 대한 근골격계 질환 예방 기준안 마련 및 수공구 설계를 위한 기초자료로 활용이 가능할 것으로 보인다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of 6 weeks hip joint strengthen on muscle strength, dynamic posture control and low extremity injury criterion. Twenty athletics were divided into two groups, the exercise group was conducted for three times a week, 60 minutes, and six weeks. The dependent variables of this study were flexibility, muscular strength, dynamic posture control, and lower body injury criterion. The results of this study showed that the flexibility was not significant, but muscle strength was significant difference. The dynamic posture control was significantly effective in the left posterolateral and posteromedial. In addition, total score was significantly exercise effect, and there was no difference between left and right leg length. In conclusion, hip joint strengthen increased muscle strength and dynamic posture control, and decreased the concern of low extremity injury criterion.

The study was conducted to analyze the effect of Playing Exercise Program on body composition and physical fitness on mentally handicapped. The subjects participated research were 12 male and 7 female who were mentally handicapped. P.E.P. was applied once a week for 120 minutes in total for 10 weeks. Pre-Post test for body composition (weight, body fat percentage, body fat mass, muscle mass, cell mass) and Physical Fitness (muscular endurance, strength; hand strength, back strength, flexibility; trunk flexion forward) were conducted to analyze the effects. For obtaining the statistics, SPSS 18.0 was used and mean and standard deviation were calculated. T-test was performed to differentiate performance ability and to compare the effect of P.E.P. on body composition and physical fitness for 10 weeks and the statistical level of significance was set to p<.05. The result obtained showed significant difference for only muscle mass in body composition variable. Moreover when analyzing physical fitness variable, there were significant differences in back strength, grasping left and right hand, trunk flexion forward and muscular endurance. Therefore, it can be concluded that the P.E.P. was effective for mentally handicapped. And the program can be utilized as effective energy consumption program and can contribute to preventing adult diseases.

This study was to verify effect on muscle strength of trunk and body composition for elderly according to spinal stability exercise with three dimension. We recruited forty elderly participants(twenties as training group, the other twenties as control group) over sixty five aged. The participant performed muscle strength estimation to exercise of eight direction using spinal stability training system. Also, we estimated body composition in participants using inbody 720. Trining group performed direction exercise(F, FOR, R, BOR, B, BOL, L, FOL) and multiple exercise with band exercise, strengthening gym and walking during thirty minute. But control group only performed multiple exercise without direction exercise. All training progressed three days a week for eight weeks. The results showed that muscle strength of trunk in training group increased significantly from 79.9 point to 85.6 point with reducement of body weight, body fat and BMI. However, control group showed a few exercise effect with increasement of amount of muscles and reducement of body fat without muscle strength of trunk. These results means that spinal stability exercise could be helped to prevent obey and fall of elderly caused by muscle strengthening and improving body composition. This could be applied to develop rehabilitation program efficiently based these data.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of lumbar stabilization exercise on pain-related function of industrial workers with chronic low back pain and lumbar instability. 20 industrial workers with chronic low back pain were divided into two groups, control group(n=10) and experimental group(n=10). Back muscle strength, flexibility, and balance ability were measured to assess physical functions, and visual analog scale(VAS) was used to evaluate pain levels. In both groups, back muscle strength and balance ability increased significantly, and pain levels decreased significantly. In comparison between the groups, the experimental group compared to the control group showed significant improvement in balance ability and significant diminishment in pain levels. In conclusion, the lumbar stabilization exercise has positive effects on industrial workers with lumbar instability and chronic low back pain by improving balance ability and reducing pain.

Purpose: In the professional soccer team, we performed pre-seasonal physical examination and analyzed the results to establish a standardization data in relation to their position. Materials and Methods: We performed physical examination to the professional soccer team, consisted 34 player's average age 24.9 years. The examination performed were questionnaire on history, musculoskeletal examination, muscle power test, physiologic test, functional test. Results: According to the relationship between player position and injury pattern,. Knee injuries are most frequent on history. Physical examination outcome was that forward were prone to flexor hallucis longus tendinitis, midfielder for chronic ankle instability, defender for achilles tendinitis. Isokinetic test was done at dominant side, Peak torque to body weight ratio was 55.1%. Physiologic test checked body fat percentage was midfielder was superior as 19.8 (SD 2.9). Functional test out-come was that back strength 125 N. sergeant jump 59.6 cm, reaction time 208.5 sec, flexibility 19.2 m/s, side step 39.9 cm. Conclusion: Pre-seasonal physical examination gave us the standardization data and preventive measurement could be advocated from this results.
