Since there are many differences in physical composition, physical strength, and performance depending on gender, the resulting training effect also varies. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the differences in the effects of Pilates used by many people for body type management, diet, musculoskeletal disorders, and thus help establish gender-based programs in Pilates exercise.
Pilates exercises (55 minutes/1 day, 2 times/1 week) were carried out for 8 weeks, by 6 healthy men and 6 healthy women(total 12), to measure body composition and basic physical strength, and balance of core muscles, and muscle function of the torso muscles.
For body composition, eight weeks of Pilates exercise did not have a positive effect on both men and women. However, for flexibility items in basic physical strength, the upper body forward bend is significantly improved by 8 weeks of Pilates(p<0.05). The left hand grip of the woman has increased significantly in terms of grip strength(p<0.05). For stability and balance of core muscles, measurements of maximum ROM and body front-to-back, left-to-right, 45 degrees forward-to right, 45 degrees rear-left, and 45 degrees rear-to-back and left-to-right of the body tended to improve overall, but no significant differences. Finally, for the isometric muscle function of core muscles, the maximum torque of the female torso flexion at 90°/sec and the maximum torque per weight are significantly improved(p<0.05).
The above results suggest that Pilates exercise programs conducted in this study are effective in improving muscle function in core muscles, along with some muscle strength as well as flexibility improvements in women. For men, however, it is considered to be a very useful exercise to improve flexibility, but rather insufficient to improve the stability and muscle function of core muscles.
