| dc.title | Cortex activity fluctuations during TaiChi Run by functional near-inferred spectroscopy | en_US |
| dcterms.abstract | Lack of physical activity is a prevalent issue among the majority of individuals, and running has emerged as a popular and effective exercise method worldwide. However, many novice runners tend to discontinue running after a certain period due to concerns about injury and loss of motivation. TaiChi Run, proposed by Coach Zhang Baiming, is a novel running technique believed to maintain running motivation by reducing fatigue. Currently, there is limited research on central fatigue during TaiChi Run. | en_US |
| dcterms.abstract | This study aimed to understand the cortical activity of the brain during TaiChi Run and analyze central fatigue of participants. The findings of this research will contribute to a better understanding of TaiChi Run. The research team developed an algorithm to generate personalized TaiChi Run plans for each participant based on their measured maximum oxygen uptake and the relationship between oxygen uptake and speed. The study was conducted over two months, during which 15 participants wore the appropriate devices for functional near-infrared spectroscopy signal collection during their first and last TaiChi Run sessions. After processing and analyzing the signals, low-frequency amplitudes were extracted as feature values, revealing that participants experienced a low level of fatigue during TaiChi Run. | en_US |
