Effect of Daily Physical Activity on Cardiorespiratory Fitness in Pre-School and Elementary School Children
【Supercategory:7. DESCENTE SPORTS SCIENCE Subcategory:7.4 Vol.4】
The present study was designed to investigate the relationship between the daily physical activity measured by pedometer and the functional adaptability. Subjects in this experiment were 1180 pre-school and elementary school children.
The pedometer step rate (steps/hour) in a day indicated significant positive correlation to PWC₁₇₀ at 4. 6. 8. and 10. years of age in boys and girls. (p<0.01, p<0.05) It was suggested that the pre-school and the elementary school children who vigorously exercise in a day were superior in the functional adaptability to the children not doing.
