Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the effect of flexi-bar exercise on changes in postural alignment and balance of juvenile soccer players. The subjects were juveniles soccer players divided into exercise and control groups of 10 players each. The exercise group performed a flexi-bar exercise for 30 minutes a day three times weekly for eight weeks, and the differences in postural alignment and balance before and after the experiment and between study groups were analyzed. The measurements before the subjects exercised revealed overall asymmetric postural alignments and balance toward the right and rear sides. The study results showed that the exercise group had a statistically significant improvement in the height and angle of both shoulder, scapula, pelvis and hands(p<.05) after performing the exercise. Changes in balance showed that the exercise group had statistically significant reduction in changes in curve length(p<.05). The study verified that flexi-bar exercise can be effective for improving the postural alignment and balance of juvenile soccer players.

본 연구의 목적은 플렉시-바 운동이 유소년 축구선수의 자세와 균형 변화에 미치는 효과를 알아보고자 실시하였다. 연구대상은 10대 유소년 축구선수로 운동군 10명, 대조군 10명으로 나누어 운동군에 플렉시-바 운동을 8주간 주3회 일일 30분 실시하여 연구대상자들의 운동 전 후와 연구군 사이의 자세정렬과 균형의 차이를 분석하였다. 연구전 측정 시 연구대상자들은 전반적인 자세정렬의 비대칭과 균형이 오른쪽과 뒤쪽으로 치우친 특징을 보였다. 연구결과, 운동군은 양쪽 어깨, 어깨뼈, 골반, 손의 각도와 높낮이 차이(p<.05)가 통계적으로 유의하게 개선되었지만, 대조군에서는 유의한 변화가 없었다. 균형의 변화는 운동군에서 눈을 뜬 상태의 이동거리가 통계적으로 유의하게 감소하였다(p<.05). 본 연구를 통해 플렉시-바 운동이 유소년 축구선수의 자세와 균형 개선에 효과적인 운동프로그램이 될 수 있음을 확인하였다.
