戏剧,体育和康复环境中的专业人士已经将普拉提运动融入到他们的实践中。普拉提运动方法声称有几个好处,包括改善姿势和改善平衡;然而,很少有研究支持这些说法。我们研究了普拉提运动对健康成年人动态平衡的影响。一个经过认证的普拉提教练进行了所有的锻炼课程。在完成10个普拉提运动课程后,运动组(n = 17)的功能性前伸测试(FRT)平均得分在动态平衡方面发生了显著变化(P = 0.01)。对照组(n = 17)无显著变化(P = 0.54)。结果表明,普拉提为基础的运动改善动态平衡,在健康成年人的FRT测量。(C)2006爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
Professionals in theater, athletics, and rehabilitation settings have integrated Pilates-based exercise into their practice. The Pilates method of exercise claims to have several benefits including improving posture and improving balance; however, there are few studies to support these statements. We studied the effects of Pilates-based exercise on dynamic balance in healthy adults. A certified Pilates instructor conducted all exercise sessions. After completing 10 Pilates-based exercise sessions a significant change ( P = .01) in dynamic balance was found in the functional reach test (FRT) mean scores in the exercise group (n = 17). The control group ( n = 17) demonstrated no significant change ( P = .54). The results suggest that Pilates-based exercise improved dynamic balance as measured by the FRT in healthy adults.
