Abstract

<p>[Purpose] The purpose of our research was to clarify the relationships between body fat and physical function evaluations. [Participants and Methods] The participants were 70 company employees. Body fat percentage, the 2-step test, and 30-seconds chair-stand test (CS30) were measured at the same time for a total of 3 days, and statistical analysis was performed to calculate Pearson’s correlation coefficient. [Results] There was a negative correlation between body fat percentage and CS30. [Conclusion] Although CS30 tended to increase as the body fat percentage decreased, the results suggest that body fat percentage and the two-step test are not related in workers.</p>
