Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the present time, there is limited information about the change of skeletal muscle and internal organ masses induced by exercise training. Moreover, it was unknown whether the exercise training-induced change in resting energy expenditure (REE) was due to changes in organ-tissue mass. According to the longitudinal data for college Sumo wrestlers (n=18) in the present study, the exercise training-induced change in lean soft tissue mass using DXA was from -10kg to +5kg. In the near future, we will investigate the relationship between the exercise training-induced changes in mass of skeletal muscle, liver and kidneys, and REE.
