Abstract
Following medical screening and physical fitness testing (W170) 52 voluntary employees in a 31-story administration building were formed into matched pairs and randomly allocated into intervention (stairclimbing) and control (lift) groups. The intervention group was asked to climb at least 25 floors/workday or 125 floors/week. The control group was asked to use only the lift. The intervention time was 10 weeks. The physiological measurements were made before and after the intervention. The number of stairs climbed was recorded daily in a diary. The heart rate was recorded continuously over one workday before and during the intervention. The average quantity of training in the final intervention group (n=19) was 29.9 floors/workday or 36,790 kpm/week and in the control group 4.6 and 5980 correspondingly. The average training frequency was 4.3 in intervention- and 1.4 climbs/workday in the control group. The average number of continuous floors used during climbing was 7.0 in intervention and 3.4 in control group. The average number of minutes on heart rate level of 130–159 beats/min during one workday was 7.8 in intervention and 1.6 in control group. The W170 (W/kg) increased 17.8% and the predicted VO2max (ml/min/kg) 15.1% in intervention group. The difference between the intervention group and the control group was significant (pn=19) betrug 29,9 Stockwerke/Arbeitstag oder 36 790 kpm/Woche, in der Kontrollgruppe (n=19) dagegen nur 4,6 Stockwerke/Arbeitstag und 5980 kpm/Woche. Als mittlere Trainingsfrequenz ergaben sich 4,3 Aufstiege/Arbeitstag in der Interventionsgruppe und 1,4 Aufstiege/Arbeitstag in der Kontrollgruppe. In der Interventionsgruppe wurden im Durchschnitt 7,0 Stockwerke hintereinander gestiegen und in der Kontrollgruppe 3,4 Stockwerke. Die durchschnittliche Anzahl der Minuten, in denen pro Arbeitstag eine Herzfrequenz von 130–159 SchlÄgen/min gezÄhlt wurde, betrug 7,8 in der Interventions- und 1,6 in der Kontrollgruppe. Für die Interventionsgruppe wurde nach der Intervention eine Steigerung der W170 (W/kg) um 17,8% und der geschÄtzten VO2max (ml/min/kg) um 15,1% ermittelt. Der Unterschied zwischen Kontroll- und Interventionsgruppe war signifikant (p<0,01). Das Treppensteigen scheint nach diesen Ergebnissen eine geeignete berufsnahe Trainingsmöglichkeit für untrainierte MÄnner im mittleren Alter darzustellen.Keywords
