dc.description.abstractKoutedakis, Y., H. Hukam, G. Metsios, A. Nevill, G. Giakas, A. Jamurtas, and L. Myszkewycz. The effects of three months of aerobic and strength training on selected performance- and fitness-related parameters in modern dance students. J Strength Cond. Res. 21(3):808-812. 2007-The purpose of the present study was to assess the effects of a 12-week aerobic and muscular strength training program on selected dance performance and fitness-related parameters in modern dance students. The sample consisted of 32 men and women (age 19 +/- 2.2 years) who were randomly assigned Into exercise (n = 19) and control (n = 13) groups. Anthropometric and flexibility assessments, treadmill ergometry, strength measurements, and-on a separate day-a dance technique test were conducted preand postexercise training in both groups. After the end of the program, the exercise group revealed significant increases In dance (p < 0.02), Vo(2)max (p < 0.04), flexibility (p < 0.01), and leg strength (p < 0.001) tests compared to controls. It is concluded that in modern dance students (a) a 3-month aerobic and strength training program has positive effects on selected dance performance and fitness-related parameters, (b) aerobic capacity and leg strength improvements do not hinder dance performance as studied herein, and (c) the dance-only approach does not provide enough scope for physical fitness enhancements.en
