Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Nurida-Ball exercise on isokinetic muscle function, spinal alignment, and dynamic balance capacity in middle-aged men. All middle-aged men(n=16) were divided into 2 groups: Ball exercise(BE, n=8) and control(CON, n=8) group. BE group performed the Nurida-Ball exercise(30 min/day, 3 days/week, 8 weeks) and isokinetic knee and trunk muscle function, spinal alignment, and dynamic balance capacity were measured. All of the measured variables calculated the mean and standard deviation and verified normality using the Shapiro-Wilk test. The independent t-test method and the Paired t-test method were then analyzed to identify differences between groups. This study found that isokinetic knee and trunk muscle function was significantly strengthened in the BE compared with CON group by increasing peak torque(PT) of right and left knee extension(60°/sec, p<0.01, respectively), average power(AP) of right and left knee extension(60°/sec, p<0.05, p<0.01, respectively), and PT of right knee flexion(180°/sec, p<0.05) and AP of right knee extension(180°/sec, p<0.05). In the change of isokinetic trunk muscle function, only PT of trunk extension(180°/sec) was increased in the BE compared with the CON group(p<0.05). In addition, Nurida-ball exercise can improve the spinal alignment by reducing the trunk inclination(p<0.05) in the BE compared with the CON group. Finally, dynamic balance capacity was also enhanced in the BE compared with the CON group by decreasing the score of overall balance index(OBI, p<0.01) and Antero-posterior balance index(p<0.05) in the Stage-6, and OBI(p<0.05) in the Stage-1. This result demonstrated that Nurida-ball exercise may improve spinal alignment, dynamic balance capacity, and isokinetic muscle function, which might be an effective way for the improvement of health-related fitness in middle-aged men.

본 연구는 8주간의 누리다 볼 운동이 중년 남성들의 등속성 근기능, 척추 정렬 및 동적 균형 능력에 미치는 영향을 규명하는데 있다. 본 연구의 대상자는 중년 남성(n=16)을 공 운동 그룹(BE, n=8)과 비교 그룹(CON, n=8)으로 구분하였으며 BE 그룹은 하루 30분, 주 3회, 총 8주간 누리다 볼 운동을 실시하여 등속성 슬관절 및 체간의 근 기능, 척추 정렬 및 동적 균형 능력을 측정하였다. 측정된 모든 변인들은 평균과 표준편차를 산출하고, Shapiro-Wilk test를 이용하여 정규성 검증을 확인하였다. 이후 집단 간의 차이를 확인하기 위해서 독립(Independant) t-test 방법과 대응(Paired) t-test 방법을 이용하여 분석하였다. 본 연구의 결과, 등속성 슬관절 및 체간 근 기능은 CON 그룹과 비교하여 BE 그룹에서 좌측과 우측의 슬관절 신전근의 피크파워(%BW, 60°/sec, p<.001, respectively), 좌측과 우측 슬관절 신전근의 평균파워(%BW, 60°/sec, p<.05, p<.001, respectively), 우측 슬관절 굴골근의 피크파워(%BW, 180/sec, p<.05) 및 우측 슬관절 신전근의 평균파워(%BW, 180°/sec, p<.05)가 유의하게 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 등속성 체간의 근 기능 변화량은 CON 그룹과 비교하여 BE 그룹에서 신전근의 피크토크(%BW, 180/sec, p<.05)가 유의하게 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 누리다 볼 운동은 몸통 앞뒤 기울기를 감소시켜 척추 정렬을 일부 개선한 것으로 나타났다(p<0.05). 마지막으로 CON 집단과 비교하여 BE 집단에서 동적 균형 능력은 6 단계의 전체균형지수(p<0.01), 전후균형지수(p<0.05) 및 1단계의 전체균형지수(p<0.05)를 유의하게 감소시켰다. 따라서 연구를 종합해 보면 누리다 볼 운동은 중년 남성들에게 있어 등속성 근 기능, 척추 정렬 및 동적 균형 능력과 같은 건강 관련 체력을 향상 시킬 수 있는 효과적인 운동 기구라고 사료되며, 향후 운동의 형태(강도, 빈도 등)를 다양하게 적용한 후속 연구가 필요할 것이다.
