Abstract
|
|
|
Background/Objectives: This study is to compare the effects of a lumbar stabilization exercise program combining abdominal bracing exercise and hollowing exercise on lung function of smokers and non-smokers in their 20s.
Methods/Statistical analysis: The same intervention was performed by recruiting normal adults in their 20s into a smoking group and a non-smoker group.
Findings: In the smoking group, FEV1 and PEF, excluding FVC and FEV1/FVC, among the lung function factors increased significantly compared to before exercise (p<.05). In the non-smokers group, FEV1 and FEV1/FVC, excluding FVC and PEF, among lung function factors increased significantly compared to before exercise (p<.05).
Improvements/Applications: The lumbar stabilization exercise program combining abdominal bracing and abdominal hollowing exercise was effective in improving lung function in both groups.
