The Impact of Frequency and Duration of Aerobic Dance on Cardiorespiratory Fitness in Adolescent Girls
Downloads
This study investigated the effect of aerobic dance frequency and duration on cardiorespiratory fitness in adolescent girls in Makassar. Using a quasi-experimental pre-test and post-test control design, 40 girls aged 17–22 were divided into experimental and control groups (n=20 each). The experimental group performed aerobic dance three times per week for 45–60 minutes over eight weeks, while the control group continued routine activities. Cardiorespiratory fitness was measured using the 12-minute Cooper Test. Data analysis included normality, homogeneity, paired t-tests, and independent t-tests. Results indicated a significant VO?max improvement in the experimental group (? mean = +4.70; p < 0.001) compared to no significant change in the control group (? mean = -0.35; p > 0.05). The post-test difference between groups was also significant (t = -3.756; p < 0.001). Regular aerobic dance effectively enhances cardiorespiratory fitness in adolescent girls.
