Exergaming (XBOX Kinect™) Versus Traditional Gym-based Exercise for Postural Control, Flow and Technology Acceptance in Healthy Adults: a Randomised Controlled Trial
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Exercise for Healthy Young Adults. Completed, enrolled 44 participants.
Detailed Summary
Balance training is an important component of physical fitness, however due to the mundane and often repetitive nature of balance training alone this is often forgotten about and as a result people may be more susceptible to postural control instabilities. A potential solution to the mundane aspect of balance training is the use of exergaming (interactive exercise and gaming combined) through the use of commercial gaming systems such as the Nintendo Wii, Dance Dance Revolution (DDR) and more recently the XBOX Kinect. The aim of the investigation was to assess the XBOX Kinect versus traditional balance training on postural control, flow and technology acceptance.
