Effect of Tae-bo Exercises Implemented on Sedentary Women, on Some Physical and Physiological Parameters

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of eight weeks Tae-bo exercises implemented on sedentary women, on some physical and physiological parameters. 32 volunteer sedentary women were involved in the said study whose age average is28,31 +/- 4,79. 32 volunteer sedentary women were involved in the investigation group, whose age average was 28,31 +/- 4,79 years and height average was 163,17 +/- 3,93 cm. Body weight before and after the exercises was taken, some circumference measurements were made and blood samples were taken on an empty stomach basis, in pre-determined healthcare organizations, in a proper laboratory environment by competent people. Paired Sample T Test was implemented to compare values before and after the exercise with descriptive statistics by using SPSS 22.0 software during the analysis of obtained data. A significant difference was determined in between blood lipids Triglyceride, HDL, LDL and total cholesterol levels before and after the implemented resistance exercises in the direction of obtained findings (p>0,05). In the same way, a significant and positive change was determined in between preliminary test and last-test measurements. (p>0,05). Finally, it is observed as a result of our investigation that implemented tae-bo exercise program made an important remediation physiologically for Sedentary women. At the same time, it can also be seen from our findings that it changed circumference measurements physically in a positive way. On the basis of these findings, Tae-bo exercises are thought to be a preferable exercise program to reach a healthy hody-mass index, and besides, to be protective for lots of diseases which would be caused by the cardiovascular system.
