Abstract

Aging is an inevitable natural process, and one of its impacts is the decline in the cardiorespiratory system. Preventive efforts can be made by increasing physical activity as early as possible during the pre-elderly phase (45-59 years). This study aimed to determine the effect of Healthy Heart Exercise Series-I on cardiorespiratory endurance in the elderly in Banjar Dakdakan, Peguyangan Village, North Denpasar District. This pre-experimental study used a pre-test and post-test one-group design conducted from April to May 2024, involving 15 research participants who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling. The instrument used to measure cardiorespiratory endurance was the six-minute walking test, which was then converted into VO2Max values. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test to determine the effect of Healthy Heart Exercise Series-I on cardiorespiratory endurance in the elderly. The analysis results showed a p-value of 0.001 (p<0.05), indicating a significant difference in the improvement of VO2Max before and after the intervention in the elderly group who received the treatment. It was concluded that Healthy Heart Exercise Series-I positively affects cardiorespiratory endurance in the elderly in Banjar Dakdakan, Peguyangan Village, North Denpasar District.

Abstract

Introduction: The activities of garment workers who work with repetitive movements over a long time can influence the emergence of musculoskeletal complaints, one of which is low back pain, which is non-specific. Low back pain non-specific complaints impact functional activities and affect workers' work. Purpose: This study aims to determine the effect of the stretching exercise and McKenzie exercise in reducing pain and increasing functional activity in garment workers with non-specific low back pain. Methods: This type of research is experimental with a pre-test and post-test control group design. Treatment is given in 12 sessions over 4 weeks and carried out from April to May 2024. The research subjects were garment workers who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria with 22 people, divided into group I (n = 11 people) given the stretching exercise and group II (n = 11 people) given the McKenzie exercise. Results: The results of the difference test between groups I and II used the Mann-Whitney U test on the Visual Analog Scale (p < 0.05) and Oswestry Disability Index values (p < 0.05). Methods: It was concluded that self-stretching exercise was more effective than McKenzie exercise in reducing pain and increasing functional activity in garment workers with non-specific lower back pain
