要旨:ラジオ体操は,馴染み深く,新たな学習を要しないため,幅広い高齢者を対象とした健康支援として活用が期待できる.しかし,地域開催型ラジオ体操(以下,地域ラジオ体操)が高齢者の身体・心理社会面にもたらす効果は明らかでない.本研究では,地域在住高齢者を対象に週5回3ヵ月間の地域ラジオ体操の介入を行い効果を検討した.対象は,ラジオ体操群20名,対照群17名である.その結果,ラジオ体操群の継続割合は90.9%と高く,下肢筋力,動的バランスに有意な向上が認められた.また,ラジオ体操群の7割以上が生活リズムや気分,体調に良好な主観的変化を認知していた.
Radio calisthenics are expected to be utilized to promote the health of the elderly because they are familiar exercises requiring no new learning. However, the physical and psychosocial effects of community-based radio calisthenics on the elderly are unclear. In this study, we examined the effects of radio calisthenics on elderly citizens held by the community 5 times a week during a 3-month intervention. Twenty and 17 subjects were categorized into the radio calisthenics group and control group, respectively. The results of the study showed improved leg muscle strength and dynamic balance in the radio calisthenics group. The continuation ratio of the radio calisthenics group was high at 90.9%. In addition, over 70% of subjects in the experimental group recognized favorable changes in their rhythm of life, mood, and physical condition.
