Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of Pilates exercises on the mood of non-athlete women. 45 non-athlete women aged 20 to 40 from the selected clubs in Tehran, who enrolled in sports classes and were randomly selected and randomly assigned into 3 groups of 15 trainees (TRX) (n = 15), Pilates (n = 15) and control group (n = 15). In this research, the bromus logbook (Lin et al., 2007) was used as a tool. Participants in experimental groups were intervened in 12 sessions of 60 minutes in 6 weeks. One-way ANOVA and Shafa's post hoc test were used to analyze the data. The results showed that there is no significant difference between the variations average of stress (p = 0.053), depression (p = 0.961), anger (p = 0.252), vitality (p = 0.340), fatigue (p = 0.611), confusion (p = 0.988), relaxation (p = 0.203), happiness (p = 0.67), TRX and non-athlete female and control exercising groups. It is suggested that more research is done on larger samples so that the results can be expanded with certainty.
