Effects of Aerobic Dance with Different Intensities on the Physical Fitness and Visual Evoked Potentials of Female Students / 中国运动医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effects of 8-week Grade 2 and 5 Aerobic Dances on physical fitness and visual evoked potentials(VEPs)of female students.Methods ① Forty five female student volunteers were randomly divided into three groupscontrol group(C).Grade 2(G2)and 5(G5)Aerobic Dances groups.The aerobic dances groups took part in Chinese National Aerobic Dance Grade 2(135 tempo/min)and 5(148 tempo/min)separately,lh/day,3 days/week,for 8 weeks.②Physical fitness in three groups was compared before and after 8 weeks.③The NDI-200 neural electricity tester(Haishen)was applied to measure the PR-VEPs in all subjects before and after the experiment,and the changes in VEPs latencies,inter-peak latencies and peak to peak amplitudes were compared.ResuIts①The number of sit-ups with 90°knees flexion and sit-and reach,and maximuin oxygen uptake of both groups G2 and G5 increased significantly(P0.05).Conclusion Both Grade 2 and 5 Aerobic Dances could improve the physical fitness and shorten the VEP P_(100) latency,especially the Grade 5 Aerobic Dance.
