説明

The purpose of this study was to clarify the physical fitness in elderly people with habitual physical activity. Twenty three men (age: 74.5±4.1 years) and seventeen women (age: 76.1±3.9 years) who have worked out habitual gate ball activity participated in this study. The grip strength, sit-ups, trunk flexion, foot-balance, 10-m hurdle walk, and 6-min walk were measured, and it was compared to mean values in Japanese people. Although there were no significant differences in the mean value of grip strength, sit-ups, trunk flexion, and 10-m hurdle walk irrespective of the sex or age groups, the mean values of foot-balance and 6-min walk were lower values than that in Japanese people. Particularly, the foot-balance (75-79 years) and 6-min walk (70-74 and 75-79 years) in male and the foot-balance (75-79 years) in female showed remarkably low mean values. These results suggest that the elderly people with habitual gate ball activity have the strength, muscular endurance, flexibility, and walking ability almost equal to the same age in Japanese general population. However, the balance and aerobic capacity were shown lower than them. Therefore, it is necessary for elderly gate ball players to work out exercise training to enhance the balance and aerobic capacity.
