태권도 일반품새와 음악품새 수행이 혈중 스트레스호르몬 농도에 미치는 영향

Abstract

This study sought to determine the positive effect of music poomsae by investigating how the general and music poomsae training would affect the level of stress hormones in the blood of high school male students. A total of 16 high school male students aged 16-18 years and known to have no specific disease upon interviewing them about their health were selected. They were randomly divided into two groups: general (8) and music poomsae (8). The difference in the level of stress hormones in the blood before and after the experiment was tested after they were made to repeat the Taekwondo's eight signs of divination (chapters 1-8) twice at the same speed. The test indicated that the levels of Epinephrine, Norepinephrine, and Cortisol increasedin the general poomsae group after the experiment. In the music poomsae group, however, the levels of Epinephrine, Norepinephrine, and Cortisol decreased significantly after the experiment. This suggests that the music poomsae training has positive effects on the level of stress hormones in the blood.
