Research Abstract |
Firstly, to examine validity of LC, ten children wearing LC on their waists performed the walking and running tests and energy expenditure was measured by the expired gas analysis methodduring the tests. As the result, LC method is a good way of measuring physical activity (PA) for children in free-living condition. Secondly, to assess relationship of daily physical activity and fitness in 288 children. As the result, the total steps wererequired at least 17000 steps in boys, and 13000 steps in girls, respectively. Thirdly, to examine effects of PA before and after the health education unit using exerciseguideline (17000 or 13000 steps/day) on 4th grade elementary school children (n=86). These results suggest that present program was able to increase PA in physically inactive children.
