PURPOSE: This study aimed to analyze the G-test results based on body composition and heart rate of fourth grade Air Force cadets, identify the relationships among body composition, heart rate, and G-resistance, and provide basic data for pilots and Air Force cadets to strengthen the G-tolerance.METHODS: This study used wearable devices to measure the heart rate and fatigue of 27 fourth-grade cadets of the Air Force Academy. Physical composition and physical fitness were assessed. Based on the measurement results, G-test result analysis and correlation analysis were performed.RESULTS: G-test results showed a steady heart rate (p=.015), deep sleep time (p<.001), and fatigue (p=.008) which have significant differences. Further, a 10-second heart rate at G-test (p<.001) and maximum heart rate (p<.001). There was also a statistically significant difference.CONCLUSIONS: Effective G-test success for Air Force cadets would require improving aerobic performance, continuous fatigue, and physical fitness management. If various variables that affect G-test are analyzed and applied to physical education and physical training through continuous research over the next 2–3 years, it is expected to have a better outcome on the G-test success for every cadet.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
