| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study was to establish a methodology of self-check for prevention of falls from early middle-ages (30s). Subjects were those in early middle-aged and later middle-aged years. We carried out physical measurement, physical fitness test,and questionnaire survey.
Regarding physical fitness, some of those in their 30s were some with reduced muscle endurance and flexibility.In addition, even at a young age, it is suggested that the risk of falling in the future is high for those with a large difference in left-right balance.Therefore, self-check of muscle endurance, flexibility and posture is important for fall prevention from the 30s.
