코어 운동이 흡연자의 정적균형과 호흡기능에 미치는 영향

Effect of Core Exercise on Static Balance and Pulmonary Function in Smokers

Purpose : The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of core exercise on the lung capacity and static balance of smokers. Methods : Four smokers and four non-smokers were randomly selected. We performed core exercises( leg raises and flank exercises for 4 weeks) and measured breathing and static balance. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS ver. 18.0 was not significantly different from the T-test(p <0.05). Result : There was a difference in respiration and there was no difference in static balance. However, depending on the amount of waste in the volume, depending on the number, the results were effective. In addition, the increase in respiration rate through core exercise on lung capacity increases the effect, so it can be said that it is effective for smokers. Conclusion : When muscle strength is strengthened through core exercise Leg raise / plank for smokers, it can be considered to give respiratory influence.
