Öğe Effects of Calisthenics and Pilates Exercises on Coordination and Proprioception in Adult Women: A Randomized Controlled Trial(HUMAN KINETICS PUBL INC, 2012) Kaya, Derya Ozer; Duzgun, Irem; Baltaci, Gul; Karacan, Selma; Colakoglu, FilizObjective: To assess and compare the effects of 6 mo of Pilates and calisthenics on multijoint coordination and proprioception of the lower limbs at the 3rd and 6th mo of training. Design: Randomized, controlled, assessor-blinded, repeated-measures. Setting.- University research laboratory. Participants and Intervention: Healthy, sedentary, female participants age 25-50 y were recruited and randomly divided into 3 groups: a calisthenic exercise group (n = 34, mean age +/- SD 40 +/- 8 y, body-mass index [BMI] 31.04 +/- 4.83 kg/m(2)), a Pilates exercise group (n = 32, mean age SD 37 8 y, BMI 31.04 4.83 kg/m(2)), and a control group (n = 41, mean age +/- SD 41 +/- 7 y, BMI 27.09 +/- 4.77 kg/m(2)). The calisthenics and Pilates groups underwent related training programs for 6 mo, while the controls had no specific training. Main Outcome Measures: Coordination and proprioception of the lower extremities with concentric and eccentric performances in the closed kinetic chain assessed with the monitored rehab functional squat system at baseline and at the 3rd and 6th mo of training. Results: For the within-group comparison, coordinative concentric and eccentric deviation values were significantly decreased for both dominant and nondominant lower limbs at pretraining and at the 3rd and 6th mo posttraining in the calisthenics group (P<.05). In contrast, there was no improvement in the Pilates group throughout the training. However, for comparisons between groups, the baseline values of coordinative concentric and eccentric deviations were different in the calisthenics group than in Pilates and the controls (P<.05). There were no differences in the proprioception values of either visible or nonvisible movement in any group throughout the training (P>.05). Conclusions: It seems that calisthenic exercises are more likely to improve coordination of the lower extremity after 3 and 6 mo of training than Pilates exercises. Calisthenic exercises may be useful for individuals who require improved coordination.Öğe EFFECTS OF WEIGHTED VERSUS STANDARD JUMP ROPE TRAINING ON PHYSICAL FITNESS IN ADOLESCENT FEMALE VOLLEYBALL PLAYERS: A RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIAL(TURKEY ASSOC PHYSIOTHERAPISTS, 2016) Turgut, Elif; Colakoglu, Filiz Fatma; Guzel, Nevin Atalay; Karacan, Selma; Baltaci, GulPurpose: The aim of this study was to compare the effects of 12-week standard versus weighted jump rope training on physical fitness tests including anaerobic power, speed, agility and flexibility in female adolescent volleyball players. Methods: Twenty-five female volleyball players were recruited to the study. Participants were randomly separated into three study groups; weighted jump rope training (n=8), standard jump rope training (n=9) and control group (n=8). All participants were assessed at baseline and after 12-week training. Physical fitness was measured by using vertical jump test, 30-meter sprint test, hexagonal obstacle test, zigzag test and sit and reach test. Repeated-measures ANOVA was used for statistical analysis. Results: Comparisons showed that after 12-week training, weighted jump-rope training resulted in higher improvements in anaerobic power (p=0.03) and agility (p=0.003) when compared to control training; and higher improvement in agility when compared to standard jump rope training (p=0.001). In addition, at the end of training, speed and flexibility gains were similar in all groups (p>0.05). Discussion: Weighted jump rope training resulted in higher improvements of anaerobic power and agility in female adolescent volleyball players. The findings of the study provide basic knowledge for developing training protocols for adolescent volleyball players.Öğe Improving the Hamstrings-to-Quadriceps Strength Ratio in Sedentary Women: Comparison of Stabilization Training and Aerobic Training After a 6-Months Follow-up(AVES PRESS LTD, 2017) Duzgun, Irem; Kaya, Derya Ozer; Baltaci, Gul; Karacan, Selma; Colakoglu, FilizObjective: The goals of this study were to investigate and compare the effects of aerobic and spinal stabilization training on the knee muscle hamstring-to-quadriceps (H/Q) ratio in adult women. Methods: Seventy of 85 women who applied to the fitness center were randomly assigned to spinal stabilization or aerobic training groups (1, 2). Twenty-one women out of 35 sedentary women from the university who had not participated to any sport or exercise program were followed as controls. The training programs were conducted for 3 days/week for six months. All subjects were assessed before training, at the 3rd, and 6th month of training. Assessments were performed with the Isomed 2000 isokinetic system (D&R Ferstl GmbH, Hemau, Germany). The peak torque and total work of H/Q ratios were calculated. Repeated measures and the "as treated" protocol (spinal stabilization (n=28), aerobic training (n=23)) were used for the analysis. Results: The hamstring-to-quadriceps ratio of peak torques on the dominant side increased between pre-training (0.732 +/- 0.12) and the 6th month of training (0.847 +/- 0.11) in the aerobic training group (F=6.08; p=0.03). The H/Q ratio of the total work increased on the dominant side in the stabilization training group between pre-training (0.773 +/- 0.15) and the 3rd month (0.855 +/- 0.12), (F=6.402; p=0.002) of training. It increased pre-training (0.707 +/- 0.17) and in the 6th month of training (0.777 +/- 0.13) in aerobic training group. Conclusion: Both aerobic and stabilization trainings improved the total work of the H/Q ratio. Stabilization training could be recommended for prompt improvement of the H/Q ratio for sedentary women.Öğe Relationship between body composition and lung function in elderly men and women(SPRINGER, 2008) Karacan, Selma; Guzel, Nevin Atalay; Colakoglu, Filiz; Baltaci, GulIntroduction: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between body composition parameters and lung functions including vital capacity (VC), forced vital capacity ( FVC), forced expiratory volume in 1 second ( FEV1), FEV1:VC ratio, and FEV1:FVC ratio in elderly men and women. Methods: The study was a cross-sectional evaluation of 99 healthy men and women ( aged 60-88 years). Anthropometric and body composition parameters ( including fat mass [ FM], fat-free mass [ FFM] and percentage body fat [%BF]) were evaluated using the skinfold method, and lung function was examined using spirometry. Results: Data analysis showed %BF, body FM and body mass index ( BMI) of women to be significantly higher than men. Also, their body FFM was significantly less than men ( P< 0.05). Lung volume ( P< 0.01) and lung capacity values ( P< 0.05) ( VC, FVC, FEV1, FEV1: VC, FEV1: FVC) of women were significantly less than men. There was a positive significant relationship between the FFM versus FVC and FEV1 values of women and men. A negative significant relationship was demonstrated between body FM, BMI and FVC of all subjects. Conclusion: This investigation showed that women aged between 60 and 88 years had a lower lung capacity compared to men of the same age. Older women were found to have a higher body fat ratio than men, and it was found that increasing %BF and BMI had a negative effect on lung functions in both sexes.
