摘要

Weight control and yoga have been considered as popular exercises in modern countries because of their benefits in promoting health. The purposes of this study were designed to investigate the influence of health-related physical fitness in university students after power yoga and weight control training. One hundred and forty one subjects were divided into 3 groups: power yoga group、weight control group and control group according to the different training programs. Health-related fitness was measured before and after 14 weeks exercise training and data was analyzed by SPSS (10.0). Results showed as the following:
1. In weight control group, there were significant improvements (p＜.05) in body composition, fat percentage, waist-to-hip ratio, cardio-respiratory fitness, abdominal muscle endurance, flexibility, lower extremity muscle strength, and resting heart rate.
2. In power yoga group, there were significant improvements (p＜.05) in body composition, cardio-respiratory fitness, abdominal muscle endurance, flexibility, lower extremity muscle strength, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and resting heart rate.
3.In control group, there were significant decreases (p＜.05) in BMI, fat percentage, waist-to-hip ratio, flexibility and resting heart rate.
4.Comparing the results with different groups after training, there were significant improvements (p＜.05) of abdominal muscle endurance and flexibility in weight control group and power yoga group comparing with that in control group. There were significant improvements (p＜.05) of cardio-respiratory fitness, lower extremity muscle strength, fat percentage, waist-to-hip ratio, and diastolic blood pressure in power yoga group comparing with that in control group. Besides, there were significant improvements (p＜.05) of BMI, fat percentage, waist-to-hip ratio in weight control group comparing with that in power yoga group.
As a result, there were good effects in both weight control and power yoga training programs to improve health-related physical fitness. Power yoga was suggested to apply in the exercise prescriptions for improving health-related physical fitness. Further studies should be done to investigate the benefits of combining power yoga and weight control programs.
