| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to investigate the growth and development of physical fitness and motor ability based on the 10 years longitudinal study for boys and girls from 3-5 years old. The subjects were consisted of 2 different groups ; Group-K and Group-M. The first measurement was started in 1980 for Group-K and in 1983 for Group-M. Active physical education was carried out on Group-K at kindergarten. Group-M spent relatively non-active life at kindergarten. In the present study, those groups were measured longitudinally for 3 years from 1988 to 1991.
The items of measurement were as follows ; Stature (height, weight, chest girth, length of arm and leg, etc.), body fat, handgrip strength, back strength, sit up, back up, shuttle run, vertical jump, broad jump, 3 and 5 steps jump, anaerobic power and maximum oxygen intake. Max. oxygen intake was measured by Douglas bag method using ground running for chidren of kindergarten and elementary school, and treadmill running method for junior high school children. The main intention of the study was to measure the maximum oxygen intake. In this study, 446 boys and 293 girls of Group-K and 158 boys and 132 girls of Group-M were subjected for longitudinal study. From this study, it becomes clear that maximum oxygen intake develop rapidly related to the age of PHV and the physical activities effect on the development of maximum oxygen intake.
