Abstract

Forward head posture (FHP) is a type of postural that is generally described with the head tilted anteriorly/front. The wrong posture like FHP can affect the condition of certain body parts. The point of the Center of Gravity that moves will cause an uneven distribution of body weight and will disrupt the line of gravity which is a biomechanical component of the body’s balance. HoweverGood body balance can be obtained by doing regular physical activity and exercise. This study aims to find out whether or not there is a correlation between forwarding head posture conditions and disruption of dynamic balance in individuals who are actively exercising. In this study, the design used was a cross-sectional approach. The measurement of the degree of forward head posture uses the craniovertebral angle, while the measurement of dynamic balance uses the Modified Bass Test. In the results of the correlation test with Spearman’s Rank, the correlation coefficient value (sig.2-tailed) was 0.361 with a confidence interval (alpha) of 0.05 for the 2-sided test. With a significance of 0.361> 0.05, it shows that the Forward Head Posture condition does not have a significant relationship with Dynamic Balance in Umsida Sports UKM Students.

Abstract

Introduction: Patellar tendinopathy (jumper's knee) is an overuse injury that usually has a gradual onset of pain. This condition is common in jumping athletes, characterized by local pain at the attachment of the proximal tendon to the bone and dysfunction of the patellar tendon during jumping and landing. Patellar tendinopathy clinically results from high loads on the tendon, such as jumping and changing direction. Patellar tendinopathy can affect health and quality of life by limiting participation in sports and activities for athletes. Objective: This study aims to summarize secondary data related to physiotherapy management of patellar tendinopathy. Methods: The research method used is a literature study using secondary data in the form of journals related to the topic of patellar tendinopathy (jumper's knee) obtained through Google Scholar, Science Direct, and PubMed. Results: From five recent journal articles obtained with various physiotherapy intervention protocols, the results were able to reduce symptoms in patients with patellar tendinopathy. Conclusion: Physiotherapeutic interventions such as progressive tendon-loading exercises (PTLE), Eccentric exercise programmes, Kinesio-tape® and isometric exercises are effective in reducing symptoms in patients with patellar tendinopathy.

Abstract

This study investigated the effectiveness of deep cervical flexor exercise and neck callet exercise in improving neck functionality among university students with forward head posture. Through a quasi-experimental design, both exercises were implemented three times per week for four weeks, with neck functionality assessed using the Neck Disability Index. Results revealed significant improvements in both groups post-intervention, with mean pre-test scores decreasing from 38.166 to 31.500 for deep cervical flexor exercise and from 37.333 to 31.166 for neck callet exercise. A significant difference was observed between the two groups. These findings highlight the efficacy of targeted exercises in enhancing neck functionality and addressing the negative impacts of forward head posture associated with prolonged gadget use. Highlight: Improved neck function after targeted exercises in university students. Both exercises effective for addressing forward head posture. Quasi-experimental design supports efficacy of targeted exercises. Keyword: Neck functionality, Forward head posture, Exercise intervention, University students, Quasi-experimental design

Abstract

Introduction: The rising elderly population in Indonesia brings significant challenges related to the decline in quality of life due to sedentary behavior, including prolonged sitting and low levels of physical activity. Understanding the impact of sitting duration and physical activity on the quality of life of older adults, especially in Sidoarjo, is crucial for developing effective interventions to improve their quality of life. This study aims to examine the relationship between sitting duration, physical activity, and quality of life among elderly individuals in Sidoarjo, Indonesia. Methods: This cross-sectional study employed a quantitative correlational approach. The sample size consisted of 60 elderly individuals aged 60-75 years who had active mobility. Data were collected using the World Health Organization Quality of Life (WHOQOL) questionnaire to assess quality of life and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) to measure physical activity levels. Pearson correlation tests were used to analyze the data. Results: There was a significant negative correlation between sitting duration and quality of life in the psychology domain (r = -0.608; p = 0.001), social relationships (r = -0.595; p = 0.001), and environment (r = -0.474; p = 0.001). In contrast, physical activity had a significant positive correlation with quality of life in the physical domain (r = 0.401; p = 0.001), psychology (r = 0.505; p = 0.001), social relationships (r = 0.501; p = 0.001), and environment (r = 0.315; p = 0.014). Conclusion: Prolonged sitting duration has a negative impact on the quality of life of the elderly, especially in the psychology, social relationships, and environment aspects. In contrast, physical activity is positively related to increased quality of life in the physical, psychology, social relationships, and environment aspects.

Abstract

Introduction: Postural balance is a crucial component in the performance of roller skate athletes, especially in maintaining stability during dynamic movements. Objectives: This study aimed to analyze the relationship between two postural balance assessment methods: single leg stands and tandem stands, among roller skate athletes aged 10 to 15 years. Method: The study involved 15 athletes selected purposively. Balance data were collected using the single-leg stand and tandem stand tests and analyzed with the Shapiro-Wilk normality test and Pearson correlation test. Result: The results showed that both variables were normally distributed and had a very strong and significant correlation (r = 0.934; p < 0.001). These findings indicate that better balance performance in one method tends to reflect better performance in the other. This confirms that both methods can represent the postural balance ability of roller skate athletes. Conclusion: The study concludes that there is a very strong positive correlation between single leg stand and tandem stand, which can serve as a basis for evaluating and developing balance training programs for roller skate athletes.
