Abstract

Effects of long term physical training on body composition and physical fitness were studied on 110 healthy males aged between 28 and 34 years. Two and ahalf hours training of soccer, swimming, running, judo and other kinds of exercises were assigned to the subjects daily except sunday for eight months. Body weight, overweight, body fat, skinfold thickness, blood pressure, vital capacity, body flexibility, power, grip strength, maximal work capacity, and 6 kinds of sport tests were compared before and after the training. 1) Energy cost of the daily exercise was estimated at about 950 Cal., and intensity of the exercise was deduced to be 4 in RMR on the average. 2) Body weight did not change significantly on the average. 3) Body fat calculated from skinfold thickness decreased markedly, and the more fat the subjects had initially, themore fat they lost. 4) LBM increased in almost all cases. 5) Overweight calculated from weight and height may be used as a valid indicator of obesity for untrained people but not for well trained. 6) Body fat of the subjects who had high work capacity was mostly under 13, and that of the subjects whose work capacity was poor was mostly over 13.
