The role of music in increasing the exercise performance is well recognised. There is very little information about effect of music on time taken for post exercise recovery. We examined the effect of music and different musical tempo on post exercise recovery time, following treadmill work. 30 volunteers (15 male, 15 female) subjected to isotonic exercise (submaximal treadmill work) on three consecutive days. They were allowed to rest in silence on the first day, rest by hearing slow music on second day and rest with fast music on third day. Parameters such as Pulse rate, blood pressure, rating of perceived exertion (RPE) were measured at predetermined intervals. Repeated measures ANOVA test showed that with slow music, recovery time of systolic blood pressure (SBP) (7.9 +/- 2.5), diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (5.5 +/- 3.4) pulse rate recovery (PR) (8.0 +/- 2.3) and recovery from exertion (RPE) (7.7 +/- 2.5) were significantly faster when compared to both no music and fast music. The individual music preference made no significant difference in the relaxation time. The study concluded that music hastens post exercise recovery and slow music has greater relaxation effect than fast or no music, recovery time being independent of the gender and individual music preference.
音乐在提高运动表现方面的作用已得到广泛认可。关于音乐对运动后恢复时间的影响，相关信息却非常少。我们研究了音乐及不同音乐节奏对跑步机运动后恢复时间的影响。30名志愿者（15名男性，15名女性）连续三天进行等张运动（次最大强度跑步机运动）。第一天让他们安静休息，第二天听慢节奏音乐休息，第三天听快节奏音乐休息。在预定时间间隔测量诸如脉搏率、血压、主观用力感觉等级（RPE）等参数。重复测量方差分析测试表明，与不听音乐和听快节奏音乐相比，听慢节奏音乐时，收缩压（SBP）恢复时间（7.9±2.5）、舒张压（DBP）恢复时间（5.5±3.4）、脉搏率恢复（PR）时间（8.0±2.3）以及运动后恢复（RPE）时间（7.7±2.5）明显更快。个人音乐偏好对放松时间没有显著影响。该研究得出结论，音乐能加速运动后恢复，且慢节奏音乐比快节奏音乐或不听音乐具有更强的放松效果，恢复时间与性别及个人音乐偏好无关。
