The influence of short-term movement intervention on the quality of life of middle-aged women

Original language description

Nowadays many individuals with overweight in their middle age suffer with the pain of musculoskeletal system. This pain is an indirect indicator of functional disorders of the musculoskeletal system that can lead to decrease in the overall quality of life (QOL). Both can be improved by means of the individually adapted movement intervention. The aim of this work is to describe the influence of the short-term complex (movement and educational) intervention on perceiving the QOL of women with overweight or obesity in their middle age. Our research sample consisted of 23 women. The QOL was evaluated pre- and post- the application of the complex program with the questionnaire Quality of Life Enjoyment and Satisfaction (Q-LES-Q). It contains 92 questions divided to 8 domains (Physical health/activities, Feelings, Work, Household duties, School/course work, Leisure time activities, Social relations and General activities). Questions are responded on the five point Likert scale (from Not at all to All of the time). In each domain the certain changes appeared in perceiving the QOL, from which we can infer that also short-term complex intervention can be positively reflected in all domains of life. Within statistical evaluation we noticed changes on the different level of significance in all evaluated domains, except the domain "Work" (the short-term intervention took place during the weekend). Statistical significance on the level ?=0.01 manifested itself markedly in the first domain of the questionnaire "Physical health/activity", next in the domain "Feelings" and then in the last domain "General activities". The main content of the weekend program was Nordic walking, health focused conditioning and corrective exercises. Observed positive changes confirmed the suitability of the proposed movement and educational intervention for the influencing the QOL of women in their middle age.
