무용수의 무용경력에 따른 무산소성 운동능력, 건강체력 및 웰니스 영역에 미치는 영향

Abstract

The present study was conducted to identify the correlation between fitness and wellness across dancers’ dancing careers. Data were collected by surveying 110 dancers from middle and high schools, universities, and graduate schools after identifying the sample. One Gate, a TestWell survey, measures anaerobic exercise capacity using Wingate Anaerobic peak power [PP], Average Power [AP], Fatigue Index [FI]), cardiovascular endurance (PEI), flexibility, body composition, body fat mass (BFM), body mass index (BMI), percentage body fat (PBF), lean body mass (LBM), and cellular water. For statistical analysis, the study used t-test, one-way ANOVA, Fishers Least Significant Difference (LSD) test, Simple Linear Regression, and Multiple Linear Regression. The objective of this study is to analyze the relationship among anaerobic exercise capacity, physical strength, and wellness dimension of dancers by their dancing careers. Upon the study results, statistically significant differences (p<0.05) were found in maximum power (MP), and average power (AP) among the factors of anaerobic exercise capacity by dancing careers. Fatigue Index (FI) did not show the significant difference by dancing careers. Statistically significant differences were found in Intra/Extra Cellular Water, muscle weight, LBM, and skeletal mass among the factors of physical health (p<0.05), while no significant differences were found in physical efficiency index (PEI), flexibility, weight, body fat mass, body mass index, percentage body fat, and so on by dancing careers. Upon the analysis of survey results on wellness, statistically significant difference was found in physical dimension (p<0.05), but no significant differences were found in four dimensions including spiritual and emotional dimension, safety and selfcare dimension, intellectual dimension, and social dimension by dancing careers. In conclusion, it is anticipated to provide the basic data for prevention and management of dancers’ injuries based on the analysis results of anaerobic exercise capacity, physical strength, and wellness dimension of dancers by their dancing careers.
