Outline of Final Research Achievements

The present study aimed to elucidate the content of physical training program which contributes to improve competitive performance through cross-sectional and longitudinal surveys on body shape, muscle mass, and physical performance in athletes. The findings obtained in this study indicated that 1) segmental volume and muscle thickness measurements with body line scanner and ultrasonography, respectively, are useful to clarify the profiles of body shape and muscle mass in athletes, with relation to the event-related differences in these variables, 2) for young adult athletes, the execution of physical training in addition to regular event-related training is essential to increase muscle mass, and plyometric training is more effective to improve physical performance, and 3) for female athletes, the need of executing training program aiming to increase muscle mass in the upper body is high as compared to male athletes.
