The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of abdominal exercises on abdominal fat. Twenty-four healthy, sedentary participants (14 men and 10 women), between 18 and 40 years, were randomly assigned to 1 of the following 2 groups: control group (CG) or abdominal exercise group (AG). Anthropometrics, body composition, and abdominal muscular endurance were tested before and after training. The AG performed 7 abdominal exercises, for 2 sets of 10 repetitions, on 5 d·wk(-1) for 6 weeks. The CG received no intervention, and all participants maintained an isocaloric diet throughout the study. Significance was set at p = 0.05 for all tests. There was no significant effect of abdominal exercises on body weight, body fat percentage, android fat percentage, android fat, abdominal circumference, abdominal skinfold and suprailiac skinfold measurements. The AG performed significantly greater amount of curl-up repetitions (47 ± 13) compared to the CG (32 ± 9) on the posttest. Six weeks of abdominal exercise training alone was not sufficient to reduce abdominal subcutaneous fat and other measures of body composition. Nevertheless, abdominal exercise training significantly improved muscular endurance to a greater extent than the CG.
本研究旨在探讨腹部运动对腹部脂肪的影响。24 名健康、久坐的参与者(14 名男性和 10 名女性),年龄在 18 至 40 岁之间,被随机分为以下 2 组之一:对照组(CG)或腹部运动组(AG)。在训练前后测试了人体测量学、身体成分和腹部肌肉耐力。AG 进行了 7 项腹部运动,每组 10 次,每周 5 天,共 6 周。CG 未接受任何干预,所有参与者在整个研究过程中保持等热量饮食。所有测试的显著性水平均设为 p = 0.05。腹部运动对体重、体脂百分比、安卓脂肪百分比、安卓脂肪、腰围、腹部皮褶和髂嵴皮褶测量值均无显著影响。AG 在测试后的仰卧起坐重复次数(47 ± 13)明显高于 CG(32 ± 9)。单独进行 6 周的腹部运动训练不足以减少腹部皮下脂肪和身体成分的其他指标。然而,腹部运动训练显著提高了肌肉耐力,其效果明显优于 CG。
