Abstract

ABSTRACTIntroduction: Sedentary life style had become one of factors causing health problem for someone in general. To avoid that condition we could apply some exercises regularly. Exercise can improve concentration, memory, and intellectuals. The sports enjoyed today are Plyometrics and Aerobics. Both sports proved beneficial in improving cognitive function, including concentration. The purpose of this study is to find out comparison between Plyometric and Aerobic towards concentration level.Methods: This research applied quasi-experimental study with pre and post-test design. There were subjects divided into three groups were control group, Plyometrics group and Aerobics group. Medical students of Diponegoro University were taken as subjects of the research which consist 39 males. Intervention is given for 6 weeks. Each week consists of two meetings. The indicator of this research focused on concentration level measured by using Digit Symbol Substitution Test (DSST), measured before and after 6 weeks exercise. Statistical analysis of this study using Paired t-test.Results: There was a significant difference in concentration measurement results between treatment and control groups (p=0.00). Treatment group concentration scores improved better than control group. The DSST score on Plyometrics exercises was 60.00±5.08 and after intervention to 78.00±2.30. The DSST score on Aerobic exercises was 58.76±4.88 and after intervention to 63.07±5.88. Plyometrics exercises are shown to have better effects in increased concentration compared to Aerobic exercises.Conclusion Plyometric and Aerobic exercise were able to enhance concentration level with the highest result achieved by Plyometric group.

Abstract

Background: Lung function has mutual correlation with exercise. Abnormal lung function can affect physical ability to exercise. Otherwise, exercise can increase lung function. Peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) is a parameter to observe the lung function. High Intensity Circuit Training (HICT) is a combination of aerobic and endurance exercise which has total duration only 7-minutes long. High Intensity Circuit Training can be a good choice for young adults because it does not need much time, easy to be practiced, and beneficial for physical health as well. Objective: To analyze a significant increase in PEFR value after High Intensity Circuit Training for 8 weeks. Methods: This study was a quasi-experimental study with pre-test and post-test comparison group method. Samples were taken purposively from medical student of Diponegoro University (n=56, age=18-21 years old), who were divided into two groups, the control and training group. Peak flow meter was used to measure PEFR value before and after intervention. The data were analysed using Paired T test and Independent T test. Results: A significant increase of PEFR value was found after High Intensity Circuit Training for 8 weeks (p=0.000). The mean difference between pre-test and post-test PEFR value was found increased significantly (p=0.001), that training group had higher score as compared to control group. Conclusion: Regular High Intensity Circuit Training can improve lung function particularly PEFR value in male young adults.
