Abstract
Introduction: Due to the nature of their job, firefighters are at high risk of physical and mental injuries; Therefore, maintaining their physical and mental health is of particular importance. Personalized exercise training can help improve the health of firefighters and reduce the risk of injury.
Materials and Methods: This experimental and practical study was conducted on the firefighters of Isfahan City. Through an invitation to cooperate, 70 people were divided randomly into two experimental groups (18 people) and (18 people control). Sports training was done for eight weeks in three sessions per week. We evaluated Physical fitness indicators, before and after the exercises, and blood samples were taken for evaluation before and 48 hours after the end of the intervention. A correlated T-test was used for intra-group comparisons. An independent T-test was used for inter-group comparisons at a significance level of 0.05, and analyses were performed using SPSS software.
Results: The results showed that these exercises can have a positive effect on the health indicators of firefighters, including aerobic capacity (p=005/0), muscle strength (p=01/0) and flexibility (p=01/0) and some fat indicators, such as decreasing triglyceride (p=005/0) and decreasing LDL (p=01/0) and increasing (p=03/0) HDL.
Conclusion: The results showed that these exercises can have a positive effect on the health indicators of firefighters, including aerobic capacity (p=0.005), muscle strength (p=0.01), and flexibility (p=0.01) and some fat indicators, such as decreasing triglyceride (p=0.005) and LDL (p=0.01), and increasing (p=0.03) HDL.
