Brief Summary

Clinical Trial, repeated-measures design, pilot study. 81 young adults, male (30) and female (51) underwent research protocol. The aim of the research will be to assess the impact of long-term dance training on psychomotor performance, balance, body posture control and the level of neurotrophic factors in the blood in young adults. People qualified for the study were divided into 3 groups depending on their dance experience:

1. 1.KT young adults who do not exercise - cosmetology and physiotherapy students who do not practice any sports;
2. 2.PT young adults - students joining the "Podlasie" Song and Dance Ensemble - beginners;
3. 3.DT young adults trained from the "Podlasie" team with approximately 2-3 years of experience.

Conditions

Psychomotor Status; Muscle Strain, Lower Leg; Muscle Strain Back; Balanced

Keywords

Dance Training; myometrics; blood tests; Balance; Psychomotor skills

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

• Muscle Stiffness

  S (stiffness) - is calculated from the formula S-MYO = amax. mprobe / \^ l, where amax is the maximum acceleration of the striking measuring tip \[kg\], a \^ l is the maximum distance the stylus has moved \[m\]. This parameter is expressed in \[N / m\] and determines the force generated by the measuring tip of the myometer needed to deform the tested tissue to a specific depth

  Myometric measurements were performed once in the DT and KT groups. However, in the PT group, the study was carried out 3 times, at the beginning, after 6 months and 12 months after the start of dance training

• Muscle Elasticity

  D (decrement) - free decrease of vibration calculated from the logarithm

  Myometric measurements were performed once in the DT and KT groups. However, in the PT group, the study was carried out 3 times, at the beginning, after 6 months and 12 months after the start of dance training

• Blood parameters

  The concentration of androgen factors, testosterone and BNDF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor) was determined using the immunochemical ELISA method in accordance with the kit manufacturer\'s instructions (R\&D systems, London UK).

  [Time Frame: Peripheral blood from the antecubital vein was collected on an empty stomach between 6:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m. before each examination (at baseline, 6 months and 12 months after the start of the intervention)]

• Muscle Tension

  F (frequency) - it determines the muscle tension and is calculated as the maximum frequency from the power of the accelerometric signal spectrum and is expressed as in hertz \[Hz\].

  Myometric measurements were performed once in the DT and KT groups. However, in the PT group, the study was carried out 3 times, at the beginning, after 6 months and 12 months after the start of dance training

Secondary Outcomes (7)

• Maximum torque of the muscles that extend (Mpk) and flexion (Mzk) the knee joint

  Muscle strength was performed once in the DT and KT groups. However, in the PT group, the study was carried out 3 times, at the beginning, after 6 months and 12 months after the start of dance training.

• Relative moment of the maximum force of the muscles that extend and bend the knee joint (maximum moment of the muscles that extend (Mpk) and flexing (Mzk) knee joint is determined by the body weight of the examined person

  Muscle strength was performed once in the DT and KT groups. However, in the PT group, the study was carried out 3 times, at the beginning, after 6 months and 12 months after the start of dance training.

• Dynamic and static postural stability

  Balance was performed once in the DT and KT groups. However, in the PT group, the study was carried out 3 times, at the beginning, after 6 months and 12 months after the start of dance training.

• Simple reaction

  Psychomotor skills were performed once in the DT and KT groups. However, in the PT group, the study was carried out 3 times, at the beginning, after 6 months and 12 months after the start of dance training.

• Complex reaction

  Psychomotor skills were performed once in the DT and KT groups. However, in the PT group, the study was carried out 3 times, at the beginning, after 6 months and 12 months after the start of dance training.
