| Research Abstract |
New measuring and training method of muscle power for senior age, that utilizes small 'electric generator' instead of 'spring force', are developed. Our study clarified that this method can measure not only the muscle power, but also the reflection time and the muscle strength without any physical stress on senior aged subject. Meanwhile, another advantage of employing electric generator is that generator can electrically produce regeneration resistance as the load for rehabilitation. This study also describes whether the developed system can be applied for physical training. With a view of physiotherapist, various investigations were executed. The evidences show the efficiency of the developed training method and the developed system.
