| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aimed to explore the prescription and promoting method of daily physical activity (PA), which can ameliorate the quality of PA and physical fitness to reduce the risk of future locomotive syndrome development (such as osteoporosis and sarcopenia) in young and middle-aged adults. Our results indicated that a bone-formation marker increased in compared to the control after treadmill walking at the lactate threshold intensity (LT); this indicated that the intensity would affect bone metabolism in the group of healthy young adult women. Furthermore, increasing the step count decreased sedentary behaviour accompanied by an increase in moderate-vigorous PA. However, measurable effects on fitness were not observed in young adult women. In contrast, an activity monitor-based intervention is suitable for improving the quality of PA (increasing PA at/above LT), cardiorespiratory fitness, and cardiometabolic parameters, which would prevent the future functional limitation development.
