Abstract
目的:本研究旨在探討有無規律瑜珈運動中年婦女在體適能、疲勞程度與生活壓力上的差異及其相關性。以94位大台北地區有無規律瑜珈運動40~55歲之中年已婚婦女為研究對象,其中規律瑜珈運動組30人,每週至少運動三次,每次至少三十分鐘以上之瑜珈運動,並持續半年以上者,另64位受試者無規律運動習慣。兩組受試者均測量柔軟度、六分鐘走路、身高、體重、身體質量指數(BMI)和腰臀圍比,並填寫個人疲勞強度(CIS)與生活壓力等問卷。所得資料以獨立樣本t-test、皮爾森積差相關分析等統計方法進行分析處理,研究結果如下:
一、有規律瑜珈運動者在「BMI」、「柔軟度」、「走路測驗」等表現顯著優於無規律運動者(p< .05);兩組受試者「腰臀圍比」無顯著差異。
二、有規律瑜珈運動者疲勞程度顯著低於無規律運動者(p < .05)。
三、有規律瑜珈運動者生活壓力顯著低於無規律運動者(p < .05)。
四、有規律瑜珈運動者,其疲勞程度與生活壓力呈正相關;無規律運動者其疲勞程度與走路測驗呈負相關,與生活壓力呈正相關。
從事規律瑜珈運動中年婦女有較佳之體適能和較低之疲勞程度及生活壓力。
Purpose: The purposes of this study were to compare the differences in physical fitness (PF), fatigue level (FL) and life stress (LS) between the regular-yoga and non-regular exercise middle-age women; the correlations among PF, FL and LS were also investigated. There were 30 middle women (age between 40-55) who had been practiced yoga for at least 6 months, at least 3 days per week and 64 non-regular women in Taipei Metropolitan area were recruited as the subjects. All the subjects (94) were married and asked to receive the flexibility, six-minute-walk, height, weight, body mass index (BMI), and waist/hip ratio measurements, and to fill out the questionnaires of the Chinese version of Checklist Individual Strength (CIS) and life stress. The collected data were analyzed with independent t-test, Pearson product moment correlation analysis and the results were as followed: 1.The BMI, flexibility, and 6-minute walk of regular-yoga women were significantly better than that of non-regular exercise women (p<0.05). 2.The regular-yoga women had significantly lower FL than that of non-regular exercise women (p<0.05). 3. The regular-yoga women had significantly lower LS than that of non-regular exercise women (p<0.05). 4. The FL of regular-yoga women was positively correlated to LS; and the FL of non-regular exercise women was negatively correlated to 6-minute walk and positively correlated to their LS. Middle-aged women with regular yoga exercise have better physical fitness, lower fatigue level andlife stress. Key words: yoga exercise, fatigue level, physical fitness, life stress
