Abstract:
Objective:The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of climbing exercise intervention on gross motor function in children aged 8 to 9 years, and to provide a theoretical basis and scientific reference for the application of climbing exercise in the improvement of children health.
Methods:Random sampling method was used to select 53 children aged 8-9 from a public school in Haidian District in Beijing, and children were randomly divided into control group (n=30) and exercise group (n=23), children in the exercise group received climbing exercises for 8 weeks . KTK test was used to assess gross motor development.
Results:After intervention, the gross motor level of male and female children in Exercise group were significantly higher than before (in male group, before intervention, KTK score：217.5±32.3，after intervention, KTK score：245.1±24.2，P<0.01；in female group, before intervention, KTK score: 219.6±30.3, after intervention, KTK score: 246.9±23.2，P<0.01); while the gross motor level in control group had no significant change compared to the intervention state before(in male group, before intervention, KTK score：219.9±26.8，after intervention, KTK score：224.8±30.2，P>0.05；in female group, before intervention, KTK score: 216.6±18.1，after intervention, KTK score:214.8±28.6，P>0.05). There were no differences of gross motor level between sham and exercise group at baseline (P>0.05). After intervention, except the MS scores (P>0.05), other test program scores were higher than those of control group (in exercise group, WB: 52.1±6.8; HH: 61.7±8.7; JS: 73.7±7.6; in control group, WB: 43.1±9.9; HH: 54.5±15.2; JS: 64.9±6.8) (P<0.01).
Conclusion:Our research shows that climbing exercise intervention helps promoting the children’s physical quality, and establishes substantial foundation for the formation and promotion of sports cognition and complex motor skills.
