Outline of Final Research Achievements

We investigated influences of body weight support, stride frequency, running speed, and running direction on biomechanical, physiological, and perceptual responses during running. Our observations suggest that changes in body weight support, stride frequency, running speed, and running direction may influence gait mechanics of running (e.g., muscle activity, knee angle, oxygen uptake, heart rate, and rating of perceived exertion).

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

健康の維持・増進を目的とした、ランニングの運動プログラムの安全かつ実践的な応用に関しては、より詳細な科学的検証が求められている。今後、ますます科学的根拠に基づく運動処方が必要不可欠となるが、本研究結果によって、種々の条件下でのランニング動態が明らかになり、安全かつ効果的なランニングの運動方法論に関する基礎データを得ることができた。
