Abstract

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of different musical rhythms during incremental exercise activity on cardiovascular indices of young people. Methods: In this study, 15 healthy male university students with a mean age: 19.77 ±0.66 years, weight: 62.37±8.85 kg, height: 175±4.60 Cm, were selected and acted in three consecutive stages with an interval of 72 hours. Three pieces of instrumental music with a fast rhythm and same slow rhythm per minute were given to the participant after studying the number of music rhythm by software (Adobe Audition Music 1.5) and they selected two pieces of every type randomly. In the experiment, the subjects acted without music in the first stage, with fast music in the second stage and with slow music in the third stage. Bruce progressive test was used in this study. At the end of each stage of Bruce progressive test, indicators of 3, 6, 9 and 12 minutes were measured and recorded and then perceive pressure rate (10-point Borg perceived pressure index) were evaluated and recorded at the end of each stage. Collected data were analyzed by repeated measures and Bonferroni post hoc test. Results: Our findings showed that listening to music with fast and slow rhythms of the heart rate, oxygen uptake, cardiac output, stroke volume, maximal oxygen consumption (Vo2max), maximum heart rate ( HRmax), time to exhaustion (TE), heart rate break point (HRDP) have no significant effect (P ≥ 0.05)., but there is a significant difference between the third and sixth minutes (P = 0.007 for third minutes and P=0.023 for sixth minutes) compared to the average perceived pressure index (Borg) between music stage with a fast beat and without music, and the average perceived pressure index were lower compared to listening to motivational music and there was no significant difference in the rest of the stages (12 and 15 minutes). Also, perceived pressure index with listening to non-motivational music in the third minute (with a significant level of 0.024), the sixth minute (with a significant level of 0.030), the ninth minute (with a significant level of 0.001), and the twelfth minute (with a significant level of 0.016) was significantly lower than the stage without music compared to perceived pressure between the non-motivational music stage and the stage without music (P≤0/05). Conclusion: According to results, we can conclude that the effects of music on cardiovascular indices can occur in exercises with lower pressure and the most effect of music is on psychological aspects of human. Then, music can act as a motivational factor or it can interfere in perceived pressure and reduce feelings of fatigue.
