To determine the effect of a 16-week fitness program (strength vs. aerobic) on different indicators of body composition and components of health-related physical fitness in youths with Down syndrome. Fifty adolescents (19 girls and 31 boys; average age, 18.33 ± 1.42 years) with Down syndrome were recruited and randomized to two groups (strength group vs. aerobic group). Adolescents allocated in the aerobic group carried out a physical activity program three times a week for 16 weeks meanwhile adolescents allocated in the strength group performed a fitness program three times a week for 16 weeks. The exercise group had significant improvements in all health-related physical fitness variables ( < .05) but not on body composition. A sixteen week fitness program consisting of three sessions of 60 min is able to increase levels of health-related physical fitness but not on body composition in youths with Down syndrome. The aerobic program does not seem to show significant differences.
为了确定一项为期16周的健身计划(力量训练与有氧运动)对唐氏综合征青少年身体成分的不同指标以及与健康相关的身体素质组成部分的影响。招募了50名患有唐氏综合征的青少年(19名女孩和31名男孩;平均年龄18.33±1.42岁),并将他们随机分为两组(力量训练组与有氧运动组)。分配到有氧运动组的青少年每周进行三次体育活动,持续16周,而分配到力量训练组的青少年每周进行三次健身计划,持续16周。运动组在所有与健康相关的身体素质变量方面都有显著改善(P<0.05),但在身体成分方面没有改善。一项为期16周、由三次60分钟课程组成的健身计划能够提高唐氏综合征青少年与健康相关的身体素质水平,但对身体成分没有影响。有氧运动计划似乎没有显示出显著差异。
