Upper body exercise has many applications to the rehabilitation and maintenance of cardiovascular health of individuals who are unable to exercise their lower body. The hemodynamic loads of upper body aerobic exercise are characterized by relatively high blood pressure and relatively low venous return. It is not clear how the left ventricle adapts to the specific hemodynamic loads associated with this form of exercise training. The purpose of this study was to measure left ventricular structure and function in previously sedentary men by using echocardiography before and after 12 wk of aerobic arm-crank exercise training ( n = 22) or a time control period ( n = 22). Arm-crank peak oxygen consumption (in ml · kg−1 · min−1) increased by 16% ( P < 0.05) after training, and significant differences ( P < 0.05) were found in wall thickness (from 0.86 to 0.99 cm) but not in left ventricular internal dimension in diastole or systole. This suggested a concentric pattern of left ventricular hypertrophy that persisted after scaling to changes in anthropometric characteristics. No differences ( P < 0.05) were found for any measurements of resting left ventricular function. We conclude that upper body aerobic exercise training results in a specific left ventricular adaptation that is characterized by increased left ventricular wall thickness but no change in chamber dimension.

ABSTRAK Latar Belakang: Jamaah umrah Indonesia mayoritas dilakukan oleh usia dewasa dan lanjut usia. Bertambahnya usia seseorang akan menyebabkan penurunan fungsi sel-sel tubuh yang dapat mengakibatkan penurunan kebugaran fisik salah satunya kekuatan otot. Kekuatan otot tubuh bagian atas dapat berpengaruh terhadap aktivitas fungsional. Untuk mencapai kekuatan otot yang baik maka diperlukan latihan berupa aerobic exercise. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh aerobic exercise untuk meningkatkan upper body strength pada calon jamaah umrah. Metode penelitian ini menggunakan metode randomized one grup pre-post test yaitu untuk mencari perbedaan antara sebelum dan sesudah diberikan latihan aerobik selama 3 minggu dan pengukuran upper body strength menggunakan curl up test. Pengambilan sampel didapatkan sebanyak 20 orang dari calon jamaah umrah KBIH Al-Ikhlas yang diambil secara acak sesuai dengan kriteria inklusi dan eksklusi. Data diolah dan dianalisa dengan aplikasi software SPSS 24. Hasil: Analisa uji Wilcoxon dengan hasil p=0,000 yang menunjukkan p<0,05 dapat dinyatakan adanya pengaruh aerobic exercise terhadap upper body strength pada calon jamaah umrah.   Kata Kunci: Aerobic Exercise, Upper Body Strength, Calon Jamaah Umrah Lansia

The benefits of aerobic exercise for the elderly are well-known. They extend beyond cardiovascular changes and can reduce the inactivity-induced loss of strength, mobility, balance, and endurance that are vital for the safe performance of daily activities in older adults. However, the benefits of combined aerobic exercise with other exercises such as strength/resistance, multi-component and aerobic exercise remain unknown. The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of combined aerobic exercise on physical performance among the elderly, as opposed to single aerobic exercise. We searched four databases of SCOPUS, PubMed, EBSCOhost, and CINAHL Plus to find 18 articles that met criteria. Data was extracted using PICOs extraction tool and summarized using a narrative synthesis approach. Studies have shown that aerobics combined resistance/strength training (CEX), multi-component training (ME), and dance combined training has positive and significant effects on the physical performance (upper body strength and lower body strength, dynamic balance, fall risk, mobility, gait, agility, flexibility) of the elderly. CEX had additional benefits compared to aerobic training (AER) and resistance/strength training (RES) in gait speed, lower limb strength, and trunk fat. Furthermore, CEX was more effective than AER in improving sitting and stretching, elbow flexion, knee flexion, shoulder flexion and stretching, strength and body fat, function reach test, 30-s chair standing test and 6-min walking test, self-evaluation of body function. Therefore, the combination of multiple components contributes to the overall improvement in physical fitness of the elderly, thus preventing them from losing balance and reducing susceptibility to injury.Clinical Trial Registration: [https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/#recordDetails], identifier [CRD42021213147].
