To evaluate the effects of eight weeks of mat Pilates training on selected hematological parameters, i.e. white blood cell, neutrophils, monocyte, lymphocyte, hematocrit, hemoglobin as well as plasma volume variations in healthy, active women.
Twenty-eight women physical education students volunteered to participate in the present investigation. They were assigned to two groups: a Pilates training group (n = 14) that followed an 8-week Pilates training program, and a control group (n = 14). Blood samples were collected at rest at two separate occasions before and after Pilates training.
The Pilates training group had higher values of plasma volume variations and lower values of white blood cell (19.4%), neutrophils (32%), hematocrit (4.3%) and hemoglobin (4.6%) compared to control group (p<0.05).
The results of the present study suggested that Pilates training could be an effective strategy for increasing plasma volume variations and boosting immune system in healthy active women.
评估八周的垫上普拉提训练对健康、活跃女性的某些血液学参数（白细胞、中性粒细胞、单核细胞、淋巴细胞、血细胞比容、血红蛋白以及血浆容量变化）的影响。
28 名体育教育专业学生自愿参加了本研究。他们被分为两组：普拉提训练组（n=14），进行了为期 8 周的普拉提训练；对照组（n=14）。在普拉提训练前后的两个不同时间点，在休息时采集血液样本。
与对照组相比，普拉提训练组的血浆容量变化值更高，白细胞（19.4%）、中性粒细胞（32%）、血细胞比容（4.3%）和血红蛋白（4.6%）值更低（p<0.05）。
本研究结果表明，普拉提训练可能是增加健康活跃女性血浆容量变化和增强免疫系统的有效策略。
