Outline of Final Research Achievements

The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between the physiological clock and normal conditioning, as well as improving competitiveness. The subjects were 23 men's athletics clubs living in the dormitory. In addition to grasping the amount of physical activity and sleep state, we also evaluated the sleep structure of 7 people using a consumer EEG device. Regarding the normal student life of student athletes, the evaluation targets are competition activities and physical activities performed at other times, from arousal-sleep pattern measurement to activities related to circadian rhythm modulation-rest patterns. The study was conducted. As a result, it was inferred from the intensity of physical activity other than practice that the mass of sleep increased, such as the time of falling asleep and the extension of the time (N3) at which deep sleep (delta wave) appeared.
