Abstract

|
|
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of combined exercise and creatine consumption to muscular
function and pain in 24 middle-aged men in back pain patients. The patients were categorized into three groups; 8 patients underwent combined exercise alone, 8 patients underwent creatine consumption as well as combined exercise and the control group was 8 patients without these options. The follow-up period was 10 weeks doing aerobic exercise, resistance exercise or creatine consumption. The group that underwent creatine intake as well as combined exercise simultaneously showed significant increase on the 0o, 12o, 24o, 36o, 48o, 60o and 72o of back muscular power in the muscular function changes compared to control group, furthermore, it showed statistically significant improvement on the 24o, 36o, 48o and 60o in the combined exercise group compared to control group. However, between the group that underwent creatine consumption as well as combined exercise and the group that underwent combined exercise, the back muscular power was high in the all angles, but it was not statistically significant. The group that performed both creatine consumption and combined exercise showed pain relief relatively, comparing with either combined exercise or control group and the pain was also alleviated in the combined exercise group.
