Abstract

Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je utvrditi učinke treninga nordijskog hodanja i vježbanja s elastičnim rekvizitima na motoričke sposobnosti osoba starije životne dobi. Uzorak ispitanika se sastojao od 39 osoba starije životne dobi (69,56 ± 5,20 godina), visine (159,55 ± 5,25) i težine (73,10 ± 12,81). Ispitanici su trenirali nordijsko hodanje i vježbanje s elastičnim rekvizitima. Ispitanici su bili mjereni dva puta, inicijalno i finalno mjerenje. Treninge su provodili na Jarunu, Maksimiru i Bundeku. Period između inicijalnog i finalnog mjerenje je trajao 10 tjedana u kojima su tjedno provodili 3 treninga sa svojim trenerima u trajanju od 60 – 80 minuta. Ispitanici su bili testirani u 7 testova. Na temelju rezultata koje smo dobili putem Studentovog t -test za zavisne uzorke možemo zaključiti da trening nordijskog hodanja i vježbanja s elastičnim
rekvizitima ostvaruje statistički značajan napredak u testiranim motoričkim sposobnostima. Ravnoteža je bila procjenjivana u dva testa (statička ravnoteža – Berg i dinamička ravnoteža – Tug) te je u oba testa došlo do poboljšanja rezultata (Berg: 1,15 ± 1,53 vrijednosti, Tug: -0,39 ± 0,59 sekundi) Eksplozivna snage se mjerila testom bacanje medicinke (Bac: 4,51 ± 3,75 dm) u kojima smo također ostvarili poboljšanje rezultata. Relativna repetitivna snaga je bila unaprijeđena, čučnjevi su bili test koji su ispitanici provodili (povećanje od 5,21 ± 6,25 ponavljanja). Mišićna izdržljivost je bila mjerena u dva testa (izdržaja s utegom (Izd) i izdržaja u poziciji upora za rukama na povišenju (Iup), te je u oba testa došlo do poboljšanja (Izd LH: - 18,41 ± 17,07 sekundi, Izd RH: 17,10 ± 12.55 sekundi, Iup: 52,72 ± 46,05 sekundi). Jakost stiska šake smo mjerili pomoću testa hand grip (Hag) u kojima je isto ostvareno poboljšanje rezultata u odnosu na inicijalno mjerenje (Hag LH: 0,82 ± 2,26 kg, Hag RH: 1,26 ± 1,92 kg). Na temelju rezultat možemo zaključiti da nordijsko hodanje i vježbanje s elastičnim rekvizitima pozitivno utječe na poboljšanje motoričkih sposobnosti i povećava kvalitetu života. Također je važno napomenuti da je nordijsko hodanje jedna od aktivnosti koja je dostupna svima i u kojoj svi mogu sudjelovati.

Abstract (english)

The aim of this study was to determine the effects of Nordic walking training and exercise with elastic props on the motor abilities of the elderly. The sample consisted of 39 elderly people, age (69.56 ± 5.20 years), height (159.55 ± 5.25 cm) and weight (73.10 ± 12.81 kg). Respondents practiced Nordic walking and exercise with elastic props. Subjects were measured twice, initially and final measuring. They conducted trainings at Jarun, Maksimir and Bundek. The period between the initial and final measuring lasted 10 weeks in which they conducted 3
training sessions per week with their trainers lasting 60-80 minutes. Subjects were tested in 7 tests. Based on the results obtained through the Student's t-test for dependent samples, we can conclude that Nordic walking and exercise training with elastic props makes statistically
significant progress in the tested motor skills. Balance was estimated in two tests (static balance - Berg and dynamic balance - Tug) and in both tests there was an improvement in the results (Berg: 1.15 ± 1.53 values, Tug: -0.39 ± 0.59 seconds) Explosive power was measured by the
medical throwing test (Bac: 4.51 ± 3.75 dm) in which we also achieved improved results. Relative repetitive strength was improved, squats were a test performed by subjects (increase of 5.21 ± 6.25 repetitions). Muscle endurance was measured in two tests (weight endurance
(Izd) and endurance in the arm support position on the rise (Iup), and in both tests there was an improvement (Izd LH: 18,41 ± 17,07 seconds, Izd RH: 17,10 ± 12.55 seconds, Iup: 52,72 ± 46,05 seconds). The grip strength of the hand was measured using the hand grip test (Hag) in
which the same improvement was achieved compared to the initial measuring (Hag LH: 0.82 ± 2.26 kg, Hag RH: 1.26 ± 1.92 kg ). Based on the result, we can conclude that Nordic walking and exercise with elastic props has a positive effect on improving motor skills and increasing
quality of life. It is also important to note that Nordic walking is one of the activities that is available to everyone and in which everyone can participate.
