To determine the musculoskeletal problems associated with high intensity physical exercise among non-athletic youth subjects.
484 fresh Nigerian graduates participating in the mandatory National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) programme were studied. At the start of the four week intensive physical training which formed part of the orientation course for the programme, the subjects completed a questionnaire designed to determine their previous exercise habit. The physical training consisted of jogging, physical drills, games (soccer and volleyball), and man o'war activities. During the period of physical training, the subjects were instructed to report all ailments to the camp clinic.
Muscular pain/soreness and injuries were major problems associated with the exercise. The lower limbs were most affected and the ankle joint was found to be more injury-prone than other joints.
Most of these graduates were physically unfit and the intense fitness programme produced adverse effects on their physical health. Precamp physical preparation would be desirable.
确定非运动员青年人群中与高强度体育锻炼相关的肌肉骨骼问题。
对484名参加强制性国家青年服务团(NYSC)计划的尼日利亚应届毕业生进行了研究。在为期四周的强化体育训练开始时(该训练是该计划入职培训课程的一部分),受试者完成了一份旨在确定其先前运动习惯的问卷。体育训练包括慢跑、体能训练、游戏(足球和排球)以及军训活动。在体育训练期间,受试者被要求向营地诊所报告所有疾病。
肌肉疼痛/酸痛和损伤是与锻炼相关的主要问题。下肢受影响最大,并且发现踝关节比其他关节更容易受伤。
这些毕业生大多身体不健康,高强度的健身计划对他们的身体健康产生了不利影响。营前进行身体准备是可取的。
