    For adult rats fed on the following six kinds of diets for about 80 days, intermediate metabolic substrates in serum, liver and skeletal muscle were determined. The components of feeding diet are as follows:
    1. STANDARD DIEF : 18% protein, 100 oil & 65% dextrin.
    2. HIGH PROTEIN-HIGH FAT DIET: 29% protein, 25% oil & 39% dextrin.
    3. LOW PROTEIN-LOW FAT DIET: 9% protein, 2% oil & 82% dextrin.
    4. STANDARD DIET modified with choline chloride & vitamin B, C & E.
    5. HIGH PROTEIN-HIGH FAT DIET modified with choline chloride & vitamin B, C & E.
    6. LOW PROTEIN-LOW FAT DIET modified with choline chloride & vitamin B, C & E. (reference : 1, 2, 3 ; due to National Institute of Nutrition)
    As the results increase of body weight was the least 3rd diet group, and by addition of choline chloride (above 4th, 5th & 6th diet groups) it were generally inhibited. Especially the latter phenomenon was remarkably observed in 6th diet group. Although intermediate metabolic substrates in skeletal muscle were no difference from their control levels, triglyceride and cholesterol of liver reduced also in 4th, 5th & 6th diet group, and FFA level of it increased on contrary. The triglycerides of interscapular brown fat and white fat of epididymis reduced in 4th, 5th & 6th diet groups. Furthermore, increase of triglyceride, FFA and cholesterol in serum observed in above 4th, 5th & 6th diet group, which will suggest that they might be removed from brown or white fat and choline chloride might play an important role of lipid-releasing effect from those tissues.

    In order to study the relative metabolic rate and its relations with the heart rate in Japanese folk-dance “Min-Yo”, nine popular varieties of “Min-Yo” of Akita and Aomori, composed from the recreational point of view, were selected and examined by Douglas Bag method, and at the same time the appearance frequency of the movement of the dances was analyzed from the physiological point of view.
    Results obtained were as follows :
    1) The degrees of the relative metabolic rate of the dances were middle or heavy, and among them “Akita Ondo” showed the highest valve, 3.95±0.89, and “Hachinohe-Kouta” showed the lowest, 2.39 ± 0.24. Individual variations were noticed even with the same dance, and skillful dancers showed higher values than less skillful ones.
    2) As for the changes in heart rate, dances with higher relative metabolic rate show higher heart level in exercise, and those with lower rate showed lower changes. The coefficient of correlation of relative metabolic rate (heart rate in exercise/heart rate at rest × 100) with heart rate index showed a high value, r=0.973 (p<0.01) . The regression line of the latter (y) against the former (x) was, y=0.065x-5.75.
    3) Analysis of the movement showed that regardless of the dancing time, dances with high relative metabolic rates involved more intense bodily movement and greater motions, and that those with lower rates involved lighter movement and smaller motions even when the appearance frequency of movement was high.

    Bulk of informations regarding the fitness researches indicates the general tendency of decrease of physical fitness level among urban adults, especially the middle and high ages. Development of simple and unsophisticated testing methods from which lower extremity fitness may be easily evaluated is a matter of urgent necessity. For this reason, the following test items were examined and proved to be valid for the testing purpose.
    1) Twisting strength against resistance at the hips by use of transducer apparatus
    2) Maximum height of single leg step up
    3) Maximum height of single leg step down
    4) Relationship between the height of chair from which the subject stands up without using upper extremities and the degree of trunk forward leaning
    5) Maximum time length of single leg stand while 80% body weight is loaded
    6) Foot dorsi flexion strength In addition, effect of daily training using some of the above mentioned tests was confirmed among middle and high age subjects.
    The characteristics of strength exertion was further studied in order to provide fundamental informations for the tests developed. Upon obtaining strength exertion pattern along with time course, a curve figure was constructed in which the difference between the maximum tension (Pmax) and tension recorded at arbitrary time (P), hence Pmax-P, was placed on the ordinate and the time by logarhythmic unit was placed on the abscissa. The strength curve, when demonstrated in this manner, was formed to be composed of three linear parts, indicating this recording method is useful in analyzing the characteristics of strength exertion.
    Whether performance drop curve during 30 seconds exercise may indicate 5 minutes endurance exercise was, then examined. The results indicated that repetitive muscular contractions for 30 seconds may be more valid than continuous contraction for 30 seconds in predicting muscular endurance of the middle and high age subjects.

    66 senior high school girls were tested on their ability of sport physique and skinfold. Correlation of these data were investigated. Results were as follows :
    1) The skinfolds of the member belonged sport club didn't differ from those of other students.
    2) Any difference of the results of physical fitness test among the groups of 10, 20 and 30 fat/body weight percent were not showed.
    3) The ability of sports observed on the 30 fat/body weight percent group was inferior than the other two groups.
    From above mentioned results we were discussed on the meaning of body fat for the senior high school girls. Farther more we considered the condition of the participants were inferior than the mean result of the nations on their sports test.

    Healthy male adults (22-58 years old) and female adults (21-49 years old) were tested on the influence by the long distance walking and running.
    6 males walked 50 km in 8 hours, 3 males walked 40 km in 7 hours, 2 females walked 50 km in 8 hours and a half hour, 4 females walked 35 km in 7 hours, and 5 females walked 20 km in 5 hours
    All participants were tested on their bloods, urines and blood pressures at the starting time, 5 min after the goal in, and one hour after the goal in. The results were as follows.
    1) Decrement tendency of the systolic and diastolic blood pressure were observed by the long distance walking.
    2) Degree of concentrations of the blood was not correlate with the distance of walking.
    3) Neutal white blood cells were increased in all groups, but 20 km walking female group. Lynphcytes were intensively decreased in all groups.
    4) Degree of increase of blood lactate, blood sugar and FFA did not relate the distance of walking.
    5) Increasing tendency of CPK and LDH were related to the walking distance, and that of CPK was more strictly.
    6) The increase of LDH isoenzyme 5 in all groups except 20 km female group may be caused by impressive muscle work. But it was noticed that the significant increase of LDH isoenzyme 1 were observed in the groups of female walked above 35 km and 50 km wilked male group.
    Further more 3 males were tested with 20 km walk, 13 and 20 km run. Above mentioned results we would like to propose that walking more than 20 km in female and 40 km in male and running more than 13 km in male should not be recommended imprudently.
