Structured exercise has shown to improve parameters of functional fitness in adults with Down syndrome (DS). However, few, if any, continue to exercise after exercise intervention studies. Consequently, the purpose of this study was to determine the effects of detraining on anthropometry, aerobic capacity and functional ability of adults with DS.
In a previous study, forty-two participants either performed 12 weeks of interval training, continuous aerobic training or no training (CON). After 3 months of detraining, the same participants were tested again for anthropometry, aerobic capacity, leg strength and functional ability.
Significant reductions in maximal aerobic capacity, time to exhaustion and both functional test items were reported for both exercise groups compared to CON (p < .05). No significant differences were reported between the exercise groups concerning aerobic and functional capacity reductions.
Detraining occurred significantly in both exercise groups regarding parameters associated with aerobic and functional capacity.
有研究表明,结构化运动可改善唐氏综合征(DS)患者的功能健身参数。然而,在运动干预研究后,很少有人(如果有的话)继续运动。因此,本研究的目的是确定去训练对 DS 成人的人体测量学、有氧能力和功能能力的影响。
在之前的一项研究中,42 名参与者要么进行了 12 周的间歇训练、持续有氧训练或无训练(CON)。去训练 3 个月后,相同的参与者再次接受人体测量学、有氧能力、腿部力量和功能能力测试。
与 CON 相比,两组运动组的最大有氧能力、疲劳时间和两个功能测试项目都显著降低(p < 0.05)。两组运动组在有氧和功能能力降低方面没有报告显著差异。
两组运动组在与有氧和功能能力相关的参数方面均出现显著去训练现象。
