Erişkinlerde fiziksel aktivite - beden kitle indeksi ilişkisinin araştırılması

AMAÇ: Bu çalışmanın amacı fiziksel aktiviteye katılan bireylerle sedanter yaşam süren bireylerin beden kitle indeksinin incelenmesidir. YÖNTEM: Araştırmaya gönüllülük ilkesi doğrultusunda toplam 412 sağlıklı yetişkin katılmıştır. 204 katılımcı haftanın iki günü düzenli egzersiz yapan bireylerden seçilmiştir. 208 katılımcı ise hiçbir aktiviteye katılmayan sedanter bireylerden oluşmuştur. BKİ sınıflandırması; normal kilo (30) şeklinde kategorize edilmiştir. Katılımcıların yaşları 20- 47 arasındaydı. Çalışmada veri toplama aracı olarak “Kişisel Bilgi Formu” kullanılmıştır. Verilerin analizinde t- test tekniğinden yararlanılmıştır. BULGULAR: Araştırmamızda elde edilen bulgular fiziksel egzersiz yapan bireyler ile sedanter yaşam süren bireyler arasında Beden Kitle İndeksi arasında anlamlı fark olduğunu göstermiştir (p=.011). SONUÇ: Düzenli fiziksel aktivite alışkanlığının, bireylerin Beden Kitle İndeks’ leri üzerinde olumlu etkisinin bulunduğu sonucuna varıldı. Ek olarak haftada üç-dört kez yapılan egzersizlerin daha yararlı olacağı önerilmektedir.
