Effect of endurance power oriented back training on selected subjective and objective health parameters in long term unemployed over 50 years of age

  • In the last 20 years it could be occupied at numerous studies and researches that unemployed persons exhibit a significantly worse state of health compared with working persons. From this it can be derived that an increase of the unemployment duration leads to an increase of the illnesses. Due to different illnesses by unemployment, can develop effects on physical, psychological and social level. In order to work against this process and keep health consequences of long-term unemployment as small as possible (not least for reasons of the reintegration into the job market), the health promotion stands increasingly in the focus. A goal of the following study was to find out the effects of a strength-perseveranceoriented back training in regard to physical, psychological and social level. 13 longterm unemployed women (age 56.08 ± 3.17 years) were examined and trained 5 weeks. The state of health and the movement behavior was assessed with an anamnesis.

The state of health and the movement behavior was assessed with an anamnesis. The admission of the objective health parameters was carried out by the determination of the anthropometrics values by means of BIA balance, as well as by the determination of the strength impact from belly and back muscles using Total Trunk. The subjective health parameters were seized over a sensibility to pain scale and a questionnaire to the general habitual well-being. On this basis the obtained results, regarding the anthropometric values and the sensibility to pain, there could not be determined significant changes, but emphasized positive tendencies. Significant changes showed up with some parameters of the general habitual wellbeing (Well-Being-Score, psychological miss-being), as well as with the strength impact, which took the main meaning regarding the training program. Therefore it can be said that a 5-week strength-perseverance-oriented back training, improve on the one hand to the physical health, accompanies in view to the strength perseverance ability of belly and back muscules and on the other hand the psychological health, by a significant decrease of the psychological miss-being. Due to the open questions resulting from it further investigations are necessary, in order to confirm the force of expression of the results.show moreshow less
