This pilot study questions the effects of a worksite physical activity program on health and fitness in tertiary employees.
Ninety-five employees were randomly assigned to Control (CON); Novice (NOV); Experienced group (EXP). The NOV and EXP groups followed a 5-month worksite physical activity program (at least two sessions/week). Body composition, physical activity level and physical fitness, eating habits, health perception, sleep quality, pain, and quality of life were assessed.
Fat mass decreased in NOV and EXP; the distance covered during the 6-minute walking test, push-ups, squat jump increased for NOV and EXP group. Physical activity level, health perception, quality of sleep, and eating habits were improved in NOV.
This study underlines for the first time the beneficial effects of such worksite programs among tertiary employees on overall health and the feasibility of its design.
本初步研究探讨工作场所体育活动计划对高等教育机构员工健康和体能的影响。
95名员工被随机分配到对照组(CON)、新手组(NOV)、经验组(EXP)。新手组和经验组参加了为期5个月的工作场所体育活动计划(每周至少两次)。评估了身体成分、身体活动水平和体能、饮食习惯、健康认知、睡眠质量、疼痛和生活质量。
新手组和经验组的脂肪量减少;新手组和经验组在6分钟步行测试、俯卧撑、深蹲跳中的行进距离增加。新手组的身体活动水平、健康认知、睡眠质量和饮食习惯得到改善。
本研究首次强调了此类工作场所计划对高等教育机构员工整体健康的有益影响及其设计的可行性。
