    Area of Science:

    • Audiology
    • Occupational Health
    • Exercise Physiology

    Background:

    • Investigated noise exposure and hearing threshold levels (HTLs) in female aerobic instructors.
    • Measured sound pressure levels (SPLs) in aerobic studios before, during, and after sessions.

    Discussion:

    • Noise levels peaked at 93-96 dB(A) during peak exercise, with dominant frequencies between 1-2 kHz.
    • Mean HTLs ranged from 5-15 dB across instructors, with no significant pre- to post-session changes.

    Key Insights:

    • Aerobic exercise environments expose instructors to potentially hazardous noise levels.
    • Despite high noise exposure, immediate post-session hearing thresholds showed no significant decline.

    Outlook:

  • Further research is needed to assess long-term hearing health effects in aerobic instructors.
  • Investigate the effectiveness of hearing protection strategies in reducing noise-induced hearing loss risk.
