Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Research and Review - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 9

Abstract

Background: Music has been used in boosting performance during various exercise and sports events. This present study was planned to assess the effect of music on mood status and rate of perceived exertion during jumping rope task. Methods: The study included sixty healthy students (males 30, female 30) with a mean age of 18 ± 2 years. Subjects were randomly assigned into three different groups (n = 20 in each). Group 1 fast music (120bpm), group 2 slow music (90bpm) and group 3 no music group. Subjects jumped rope while listening to music for fifteen minutes or until they reported fatigue, whichever was earliest. Blood pressure, respiratory rate, rate pressure product and Profile of Mood Status was recorded before and after exercise. Results: There was a significant increase in cardiorespiratory parameters, in group 1 (P<0.05) compared to Group 2 and Group 3. Results, also revealed significant decrease in fatigue and negative mood dimensions (P<0.001 for both) in group 1. Rate of Perceived exertion assessed after completing the exercise task was significantly lower in the group 2 compared to other two groups. Conclusion: It is concluded that exercising combined with upbeat fast music may have a positive effect on various mood parameters and cardiovascular parameters during exercise, but the same need not be true with regard of rate of perceived exertion
