About

In this study, when performing aerobic and anaerobic exercise with EX1 applied to normal adults between the ages of 19 and 65. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect on the muscle activity of the trunk and lower extremities compared with and without EX1.

Full description

In this study, aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise for normal adults were divided into two visits for a total. For aerobic exercise, the investigators compared the aerobic treadmill walking program without EX1 [30 minutes of moderate (64-76% HRmax, 12-14 of RPE) aerobic treadmill walking, 40 minutes including warm-up and cool-down times], the aerobic treadmill walking program with EX1 [30 minutes of moderate (64-76% HRmax, 12-14 of RPE) aerobic treadmill walking, 40 minutes including warm-up and cool-down times] , and the high-intensity interval exercise (HIIT) program with EX1 [High-intensity-low-intensity interval walking exercise was performed at treadmill speed (High: 90-95% HRmax, 15-17 of RPE/Low: 60-70% HRmax, 9-11 of RPE) and EX1 resistance strength (High: resistance intensity 7- 9/Low: Resistance strength 0-2)] to check the effect on muscle activity, heart rate, and respiratory metabolic energy consumption rate.
