[Abstract]
The purpose of this study was to examine the most suitable exercise for the elderly women by comparing the changes in body composition and physical function fitness after modern dance, aquarobic and combined exercise programs for the elderly women. The subjects of this study were 47 elderly women in J-do, chosen as MDG(n=13), AEG(n=11), CEG(n=11) and CG(n=12) for participated for 60 minutes/day and three times/wk for 12 weeks. The results of grip strength, chair stand, arm curl, 2 minute step, 244cm up and go was significantly than in the control group. Back scratch was decreased significantly after exercise only in the modern dance group and combined exercise group but there was no change in chair sit and reach. These results suggest that various exercises were found to play a positive role in maintaining and improving fitness for the elderly women. In addition, additional exercise programs are needed to improve flexibility and mobility of joints for the elderly. It is thought that it is important to voluntarily participate in a movement that suits your interests to make it sustainable.

본 연구의 목적은 여성노인을 대상으로 모던댄스, 아쿠아로빅, 복합운동 프로그램을 실시한 후 신체조성과 신체기능체력에 대한 변화 비교하여 여성노인에게 가장 적합한 운동이 무엇인지를 살 펴보고자 실시되었다 . 연구의 대상자는 J도에 거주하는 노인여성 47명을 대상으로 MDG(n=13) AEG(n=11), CEG(n=11), CG(n=12)을 무작위로 집단을 모집하여 12주간 주3회 1시간씩 운동을 실시 하였다 . 이 연구의 결과 통제그룹에 비해 grip strength, chair stand, arm curl, 2 minute step, 244cm up and go에서 유의한 차이를 보였으며, Back scratch는 MDG와 CEG에서만 운동 후 유의하게 감 소하였으나 Chair sit and reach에서는 변화가 보이지 않았다. 본 연구결과 운동그룹 중 모던댄스 (MDG)가 운동 후 가장 많은 신체기능체력이 향상된 것으로 나타났으며, 노인들에게 유연성과 관 절의 가동성을 증진 시킬 수 있는 추가적인 운동프로그램이 필요하다 . 또한 자신의 흥미에 맞는 운동을 자발적으로 참여하여 지속성 있게 하는 것이 중요할 것으로 생각된다.
