摘要

Objective: The current study investigates the effects of Tai chi chuan on the antioxdative capability in the elderly. Methods: Forty two healthy active older male adults volunteered to participate in the study. These subjects were randomly assigned to Tai chi chuan (TCC) group or control group. The TCC group received a regular schedule on Tai chi chuan training (5 days per week, 40 minutes a day) for twelve weeks. The control group were prohibited from any physical training. Fasting blood samples were drawn before and after the 12-week training program for determination of the creatine kinase (CK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPX) and malondialdehyde (MDA). A dependent t-test was used to compare the differences of dependent variables between pretest and posttest. Results: It was found that the blood levels of SOD and GPX increased significantly (p＜.05), while CK, LDH and MDA decreased significantly (p＜.05) for the TCC group at the end of the training, as compared to the onset. CONCLUSIONS: The results demonstrated that TCC is a moderate exercise. Twelve-weeks TCC training will enhance antioxdative capability and may well reduce oxidative stress in the elderly.
