Outline of Research at the Start

激しい身体運動を行うと,筋肉痛を伴う筋損傷が生じる.この運動誘発性筋損傷は傷害リスクを増大させるため,その影響因子の特定や効果的な軽減方法が求められている.そこで本研究は,運動誘発性筋損傷の程度に筋の硬さが及ぼす影響,および,運動誘発性筋損傷を軽減する効果的なストレッチング方法を考案することを目的とする.本研究により運動誘発性筋損傷の軽減方法が確立されれば,傷害リスク低減,運動継続の一助となると考えられ,健康寿命の増加,競技力向上に繋がることが期待される.

Outline of Final Research Achievements

Twenty young males performed 100 eccentric knee flexions with maximal effort. After the exercise, decrease in isometric knee flexion torque, increase in muscle soreness, and increase in semitendinosus stiffness were obserbed. Increase in semitendinosus stiffness was significantly correlated with decrease in knee flexion torque. These results suggest that semitendinosus is the most susceptible muscle to exercise-induced muscle damage among hamstring. Hamstring stiffness measured before exercise was not significantly correlated with changes in knee flexion torque or muscle soreness. Acute improvement in joint flexibility by static stretching did not affect extent of exercise-induced muscle damage.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

激しい運動による筋痛の発生は身近な現象であり,筋の損傷に由来する.本研究により,ハムストリングの中で半腱様筋が激しい運動により損傷しやすいことが示唆された.半腱様筋に対する運動後のケアの徹底により,運動誘発性筋損傷からの早期回復が期待される.また,半腱様筋に対する何らかのトレーニングにより運動誘発性筋損傷を低減させることができるかもしれない.スポーツ競技者のみならず,多くの人にとって有益な知見を獲得できた.
