Regular physical exercise is a cornerstone in rehabilitation programs, but adherence to comprehensive remains low. This study determined the effectiveness of small daily amounts progressive resistance training for relieving neck/shoulder pain healthy adults with frequent symptoms; 174 women and 24 men working at least 30 h per week were randomly assigned elastic tubing 2 or 12 minutes day 5 times week, weekly information on general health (control group). Primary outcomes changes intensity...
Objective. To provide a comprehensive understanding of the motivational factors and barriers that are important for compliance with high‐intensity workplace physical exercise is aimed at reducing musculoskeletal disorders. Method. The present study, which used semideductive, thematic, structured in‐depth interviews, was nested in 20‐week cluster randomised controlled trial among office workers. Interviews were conducted 18 informants diverse fields sedentary work who participated strength...
A balanced level of muscle strength between the different parts scapular muscles is important in optimizing performance and preventing injuries athletes. Emerging evidence suggests that many athletes lack muscles. Evidence-based recommendations are for proper exercise prescription. This study determines activity during strengthening exercises performed at low high intensities (Borg CR10 levels 3 8). Surface electromyography (EMG) from selected was recorded 7 expressed as a percentage maximal...
Abstract Purpose Workplace health interventions with exercise have positive effects on musculoskeletal pain and well-being at work, however, effectiveness is questioned due to low adherence. In hospitals participation challenged by shiftwork unpredictable workload. Our aim was investigate the feasibility of during working hours in an acute hospital, herein estimate impact guide management decisions implementation. Methods A clinical trial a public offering staff supervised group-based...
Objectives This pilot study tested the use of an exercise offer to hospital employees during working hours and changes in work health parameters. Methods Employees (n = 214) from a medical department on Danish were invited 30 minutes' training twice weekly for 12 weeks. Outcomes included health- work-related Results Eighty (mean age, 44.4 [SD, 10.7] years; 81.3% women) completed study. Intervention adherence was 36.3% (SD, 25.1%). Aerobic capacity increased 34.6 (95% confidence interval...
