Summary: | This study aimed to improve the physical fitness of the non-physical education students by using prophylactic physiotherapy elements.
The study tried to confirm the following hypothesis: If prophylactic physiotherapy is applied correctly to the non-physical education students, according to their assessed level of fitness, their health is improved, and a prevention of various disorders is achieved.
Thirty students were comprised in the study (males and females), aged between 21 and 24; for 15 of them we created and applied an adapted program of aerobic exercises, over the course of the second semester of the academic year, 2012-2013. The other 15 subjects participated in the physical education classes, following the regular syllabus. The Ruffier and the Hettinger tests were applied to both groups of students, initially and finally.
After the final tests, we observed that the students in the experimental group have improved their fitness after the application of the aerobic exercise programs, while the control group students remained at the same level. |
