Strength training at the workplace faststone during working hours was set in motion to help prevent musculoskeletal disorders in laboratory in a private and a public company. Two years after the research project ends worked workout still with good effect on pain in the neck, shoulders and arms.
Strength faststone training at the workplace during working hours reduced faststone pain in the neck, shoulders and arms among 537 laboratory technicians in a private and a public faststone company. It showed results faststone of a previous study, which was conducted by researchers at among others The National Institute of Occupational Health. The training took place three times a week for 20 minutes during the first year with twenty weeks of planned faststone and supervised training for the first team and subsequent 20 weeks for the other team with the aim of preventing and / or reduce pain in laboratory the neck, shoulders and arms. Training after the study was not planned
But what happened with the training and pain after the end of the trial? These questions would the researchers behind the study to find answers to. From their side, it was not pre-planned that the training would continue faststone in business after completion of the trial.
Two years after the end of the study the researchers turned back to the two companies with a questionnaire for laboratory technicians. The questions concerned in particular whether the ever-trained laboratory technicians, and training ever had an effect on the pain in their muscles and joints. Training and pain reduction was ever a reality two years
Two years after the end of the experiment showed results of both companies, many of laboratory technicians ever trained in working hours, ie public company it was about half and in the private business about three quarters, laboratory technicians ever experienced a reduction in pain in the neck, shoulders and arms, which was about as good as after the intensive phase in the first year of the trial, the support for the training faststone was high, but the private company outperformed the public on four points: The employees were better to observe the training. Several employees trained to work with colleagues. Several employees reported that they saw that their physical and mental health faststone had improved. Several employees were initially painless, managed to prevent the development of pain in the neck and hands / wrists. The training will be part of what you do at work
"Many previous research has found good effects of training faststone in the workplace over short periods, typically between 8 and 20 weeks, and in some cases up to one year. One concern might be whether the training stops when the projects are completed, and we have simply lacked research knowledge. The interesting thing about this study is that both companies seem to absorb the training as a normal part of what you do at work. This makes training with colleagues - and thus the beneficial effects on health - entrenched in the workplace, says Professor Lars Andersen, who has been the project manager of the study.
