The Characteristics of Body Surface Oscillation during Exercise and Its Prevention by Wearing Leotards
【Supercategory:7. DESCENTE SPORTS SCIENCE Subcategory:7.26 Vol.26】
The results of acceleration and angular acceleration suggested that oscillation was the greatest at the nipples during jumping exercises, and the buttocks and abdomen in exercise using the lower body. The combination of leotards and leggings supported the abdomen and buttocks. The clothing pressure of nylon leotards and its support were the greatest compared to other clothing types. From the results of acceleration and angular acceleration, we found that leotards prevented more oscillation than brassiere. It is possible to say that the combination of leotards and leggings as common dance wear is appropriate to prevent oscillation.
