- W2807772081 abstract "PURPOSE: This study investigated the health-related fitness of undergraduate kinesiology majors. METHODS: Two hundred twenty-seven undergraduate kinesiology majors, 98 females (age 22.09 ± 2.02 yrs.) and 129 males (age 22.58 ± 2.17 yrs.), participated in the study. All participants were enrolled in a mandatory measurement and evaluation course. Participants completed six health-related fitness (HRF) tests covering the four major areas of fitness: body composition, flexibility, muscular endurance, and cardiorespiratory endurance. Body composition was assessed using bioelectrical impedance (BIA) and 3-site skinfold (SKF). Flexibility was assessed using the modified sit and reach. Muscular endurance was assessed using the one-minute sit-up and one-minute push up test. Cardiorespiratory endurance was assessed using the 1.5 mile run. Descriptive statistics were collected and data analysis was performed by utilizing one-sample t-tests, for each fitness test, to compare the means of HRF of undergraduate kinesiology majors with a set criterion standard of the general population. Raw scores were then standardized and independent t-tests were computed, for each fitness test, to compare the standardized means of HRF between genders. RESULTS: Statistical analyses indicated that female kinesiology majors scored significantly higher on the modified sit and reach (t (97) = 6.53, p = .00), one-minute push up (t (97) = 11.13, p = .00), one-minute sit up (t (97) = 8.21, p = .00) and the 1.5 mile run (t (97) = −4.01, p = .00) but significantly lower in BIA (t (97) = 2.05, p = .04) when compared to the general population. There was no significant difference in SKF (t (97) = 0.18, p = .86) for female kinesiology majors. Male kinesiology majors scored significantly higher in the modified sit and reach (t (128) = 4.01, p = .00), one-minute push up (t (128) = 8.53, p = .00), and the one-minute sit up tests (t (128) = 9.71, p = .00) but significantly lower in BIA (t (128) = 4.35, p = .00), SKF (t (128) = 2.91, p = .00), and the 1.5 mile run (t (128) = 1.98, p = .05) when compared to the general population. No significant differences were found regarding overall performance on fitness tests between genders. CONCLUSION: The results of this study indicate several significant differences between HRF of undergraduate kinesiology majors and the general population. This study also identifies areas for potential improvement in terms of HRF for undergraduate kinesiology majors. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Kinesiology departments may consider using this study to emphasize the need to enhance HRF of kinesiology majors in order to properly prepare them for effective practices in their professional careers. Future research should be directed toward establishing appropriate levels of HRF of undergraduate kinesiology majors." @default.
