健康體適能與網路版身體活動量紀錄之關聯

Abstract

LANGUAGE NOTE | Document text in English; abstract also in Chinese.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation between health-related fitness (HRF) and the physical activity (PA) level from web-based records in college students. The college students (N=221, 18.8±0.6 yr) were recruited. Sedentary time, exercise mode, duration and rating of perceived exertion scale for 7 days were recorded. The body mass index, sit-ups completed in 30 s and 60 s, standing long jump, sit and reach, and 800- or 1600-m run/walk were measured. Spearman correlation and independent t-test were used for statistics. A level of a=0.05 was set for significant on all tests. The results showed that both PA and moderate intensity physical activity were significantly related to HRF, where as cardiovascular endurance was not related. We suggested PA probably affect life movement but not cardiovascular endurance. This study also indicated the correlation patterns were different in gender. The best strategies to promote HRF in college students are to reduce the sedentary time for male and to increase PA intensity for female.

本研究主要探討網路版之身體活動量與大學生健康體適能關聯，本研究招募221位(18.8±0.6歲)大學生記錄7天靜態生活與運動種類、時間以及運動時自覺努力的程度，此外進行健康體適能之身體質量指數、一分鐘仰臥起坐、立定跳遠、坐姿體前彎以及男生1600公尺或是女生之800公尺跑走測驗。以Spearman積差相關進行各變數之關聯度檢定，並以獨立樣本t檢定考驗男生與女生間各變數之差異性，顯著水準定在0.05。結果顯示無論每週平均身體活動時間或是中等強度身體活動時間與非心肺適能之健康適能具顯著的關聯，此結果暗示了身體活動量與日常生活之活動力有關，與心肺適能無關，本研究亦發現身體活動量與健康適能關聯型態因性別不同而有所不同，本校最佳之男性體適能增進策略為減少坐式時間，最佳之女性體適能增進策略為增強運動強度。
