Abstract
The objective of this research was to study the Effects of Body Weight on Neck, Shoulder and Back Pain Among Personnel in Surindra Rajabhat University. The samples in the research included 30 staff in Surin Rajabhat University selected by using random purposive sampling, divided into 15 experimental groups with body weight training and 15 experimental groups with muscle stretching training. Acquisition of samples was done using Multistage Cluster Sampling. Both groups was conducted for 8 weeks, 3 times per weeks, the weight training groups was used 80% of the maximum capacity for exercise and adjusted the intensity after training for 4 weeks. For muscle stretching training groups, repeated the same exercise after training for 4 weeks. Both groups were measured by pain assessment, arms strength, resting heart rate and softness before the experimental, after 4 weeks and 8 weeks of the experimental. Data were analyzed by Paired Sample T-Test and Independent Sample T-Test statistics. The results showed that, after the training, both groups were decreased on neck, resting heart rate, shoulder and back pain. Arms strength and flexibility was increased (p <.05) whilst arms strength of body weight training groups was higher than the muscle stretching training groups (p <.05). Conclusion, both of training groups could reduce on neck, shoulder and back pain but the weight training also could increase the strength of arms muscles.
