The Fit to Dance survey has been conducted twice previously, in 1993 and 2002, without dancesport participants. The purpose of this present online survey was to supplement a comparison of dancesport against the earlier results. The current study had a greater percentage of male respondents than previous studies (43% vs 24% and 26%). The dancesport participants were older (28% at 40+ yrs vs 3% and 1%) and more likely to have normal (69% vs 57%) to overweight BMI (18% vs 2%). Dancesport participants spent more time in various non-dancing conditioning activities than previous surveys (5.2 ± 3.9 hrs SD vs 1.9 ± 2.5 and 2.2 ± 2.7). Muscles and joints were the most common type of injury in all the surveys. The knee was the top injury site in this survey, with lower back in previous surveys. The main perceived cause of injury was repetitive movements, whereas fatigue and overwork were cited in the previous surveys. Physiotherapists were the most common type of medical professionals from whom the dancers sought treatment for their injuries in all surveys. The first survey included recommendations that the present survey results agree with, including: dancers should be physically fit, dancers should warm up and cool down, dancers should never have to work in unsuitable environments, and dancers should receive immediate high-quality treatment for injuries.
“适合跳舞”调查此前已在1993年和2002年进行过两次，当时没有体育舞蹈参与者。本次在线调查的目的是补充体育舞蹈与早期结果的比较。与之前的研究相比，本研究中男性受访者的比例更高（43%，而之前为24%和26%）。体育舞蹈参与者年龄更大（40岁及以上的占28%，而之前为3%和1%），BMI处于正常（69%，而之前为57%）到超重范围（18%，而之前为2%）的可能性更大。与之前的调查相比，体育舞蹈参与者在各种非舞蹈训练活动上花费的时间更多（标准差为5.2±3.9小时，而之前为1.9±2.5小时和2.2±2.7小时）。在所有调查中，肌肉和关节是最常见的受伤类型。在本次调查中，膝盖是受伤的首要部位，而在之前的调查中是下背部。受伤的主要原因是重复性动作，而在之前的调查中提到的是疲劳和过度劳累。在所有调查中，物理治疗师是舞者受伤后寻求治疗的最常见医疗专业人员类型。第一次调查中的建议与本次调查结果一致，包括：舞者应身体健康，舞者应进行热身和放松，舞者不应在不合适的环境中工作，舞者受伤后应立即接受高质量治疗。
