Outline of Final Research Achievements

The adaptive effects of physcal training and exercise is dependent on specific protein expression by specific signal evoked by training and exercise. Most signals are exercise-intensity dependent,suggesting that high intensity exercise training is assumed to e effective for both improving athletic performance and health promotion. Therefore, we investitaged the effects of high-intensity-intermittent exercise training, which evokes signals maximally, on maximal oxygen uptake and glucose metabolis. Conseqently, we found that the exercise increases maximal oxygen uptake through increasing heart volume, and elevated glucose metabolism.
