Abstract
Purpose The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of Thai boxing exercise training on the maximal minute ventilation in the first degree obese participants.
Methods Twenty-six of the first degree obesity participants (males=6 and females=20) was selected by simple random sampling using computer and was divided into 2 groups, the control group (CG; n=13) (age = 20.7±1.4 yrs and BMI = 27.6±1.2 kg.m-2) and the boxing training group (TG; n=13) (age = 20.2±1.1 yrs and BMI = 27.5±1.3 kg.m-2). The maximal minute ventilation was assessed using ramp incremental cycling test before (pre) and after the 8 weeks of training (post). The CG had performed a normal daily life in 8 weeks. The TG was trained by using Thai boxing exercising at 89±4 percent of maximum heart rate. Boxing time was 3 minutes and switch time 4 minutes per round that amount 2-5 rounds per time with had duration 54-75 minutes per day, 3 days per week that had totally 8 weeks. The data was analyzed by mixed model ANOVA which had statistical significance at p-value < 0.05. This study had been approved by the Naresuan University Research Ethics Committee (IRB No.242/2017; October 11, 2017).
Results The results revealed that pre-test parameters were not different between the two groups. After the 8 weeks of training, the TG had significant higher in the maximal minute ventilation than the CG (TG = 82.0±23.2 L.min-2 vs CG = 60.1±19.3 L.min-2) (p-value<0.05). Moreover, the TG demonstrated significantly improve in the maximal minute ventilation after training when compared to before training (pre-test = 59.3±14.5 L.min-2 vs post-test = 81.9±23.1 L.min-2) (p-value < 0.05) whereas no improved were detected for CG when compared to before training (p-value>0.05)
