We examined the actual situation of exercise in 90 female students, and the relations among the physical status, the nourishment intake and the exercise habit. The average of daily step counts was about 6, 500, and only 13 students had formed the exercise habit(14%). The result indicated that most of the students were not in the exercise habit. The exercise group met the Recommended Dietary Allowances requirements for energy, protein, fat, carbohydrate, Ca, Fe and vitamins less than the non-exercise group. The fat energy ratio was over 30% in both groups. The average of the physical status (body weight, Body Mass Index, fat rate, lean body mass) and the amount of exercise (daily step counts, energy consumption) were significantly higher in the exercise group than in the non-exercise group.
