description | This study aimed to investigate the effect
of Kinect-based mixed reality (KMR) exercise and unsupervised individual exercise
on health-related fitness. A total of 27 participants underwent cardiorespiratory
fitness tests for the inclusion criteria and were randomly assigned to three
groups: a KMR group (KMRG), an unsupervised individual group (UIG), or a control
group (CG). Pre and post-tests were conducted to measure Maximum oxygen uptake
(VO₂max), body composition, upper and lower-body (LB) muscle strength, and
endurance. KMRG and UIG attended exercise sessions 3 days per week for 8 weeks.
KMRG used the KMR device and UIG used an instructive banner for exercise. All
groups maintained their daily routines and submitted diet records every 4 weeks.
Results showed that VO₂max, upper-body muscle endurance, and LB muscle endurance
of knee extension was increased in KMRG and UIG. LB muscle strength in knee
flexion was increased in UIG and LB muscle endurance in knee flexion was
increased in KMRG. VO₂max, LB muscle strength, and LB muscle endurance were
greater in KMRG than in CG. LB muscle strength in knee flexion was greater in
KMRG than in UIG. Body fat was increased and skeletal muscle mass was decreased
in CG. KMR exercise showed better performance than unsupervised individual (UI)
exercise, and the exercise program was effective in both KMR and UI environments.
These findings contribute to the growing evidence supporting the use of
technology-based exercise interventions as a potential strategy to enhance
health-related fitness. |
