The research method is descriptive and analytic. Materials and Methods: The statistical population of this study includes ZoorKhane and non ZoorKhane athletes whose experience ranges from one month to over one year. The size of the statistical population at the time of research consisted of eight ZoorKhanes in Isfahan with 1600 athletes and 106 state bodybuilding gyms with 5250 members. With regards to Morgan's table and by using available sampling method, 316 classical athletes and 384 non-classical athletes were selected. For data collection, questionnaires were used to determine nervous tensions, social relationships and individual characteristics of the athletes. The results showed a reliability coefficient of 0.86 for nervous tensions and 0.92 for social relationships. Data analysis is conducted through descriptive and inferential statistics ( = α 0.05). In the inferential statistics were used dependent and independent t-tests and Chi-square tests. Results and Discussions: The results indicate that there is a significant difference between the nervous tension scores in both the groups (t=0.52, p=0.000). With regards to the fact that the nervous tension scores of the non ZoorKhane athletes is higher than the ZoorKhane athletes, therefore the amount of nervous tension in the non ZoorKhane athletes is higher than the ZoorKhane athletes. There is a significant difference between social relationship scores in both the groups (χ²=،053, p=0.033), where -with regards to the average scores in social relationships-the ZoorKhane athletes were better than the others. Peace of mind, sense of security, happiness and bliss are some of the conditions in obtaining mental health, an essential human need, which can be obtained through sports, in this case the traditional sports such as zoorkhane.

    Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of an eight-week progressive resistance training and vibration program on strength and ambulatory function in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. Methods: Twenty-Four female MS patients with the following demographics: age 27-45 years, and expanded disability status scale (EDSS) 2-4, participated in this study. The subjects were randomly allocated to one of two groups. The exercise group (n=12) trained according to a progressive program, mainly consisting of resistance training and vibration, three times a week for eight weeks and compared with subjects in the control group (n=12) that received no intervention. Subjects completed one set of 5-12 reps at %50-70 maximal voluntary contraction (MVC). After 5-10 minutes rest, six postures on plate vibration were done. Isotonic MVC of knee extensors, abduction of the scapula and downward rotation of the scapular girdle muscle groups were predicted by using the Brzycki formula.
