“…[ACSM, (2000)]. The previously discussed problem about the disdesireble accuracy in evaluation of aerobic capacity based on HR response [Cox et al (1992) ; Sidney and Shephard (1977) Takeshima et al, (1992)] would be improved by employing LA measurement Jacobs (1992a 1992b)]. Furthermore it has been suggested that older individuals could perform the step test using a 20cm-platform safely without major abnormal ECG.…”

The purpose of this study was to develop a simple assessment of lactate threshold (LT) in older people. Two-hundreds and nine subjects, aged 65 to 90 years old, performed a bench stepping test by means of a 20 cm bench at 10 to 35 ascends per minute of the stepping rate. In 52 of 209 subjects, we determined the metabolic equivalents corresponding to exercise intensity of which lactate (LA) increased 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5 and 1 mmol/l from baseline level, LA corresponding to the baseline level and 2 mmol/l (METs@LAr+0.1, METs@LAr+0.2, METs@LAr+0.3, METs@LAr+0.4, METs@LAr+0.5, METs@LAr+1, METs@LAr and METs@LA2), in addition to LT. We calucurated exercise intensity equivalent to fi xed LA levels by both a standard aseessment using a liner regression between exercise intensity (logexercise inetsnity) and LA (log-LA) ranged above LT, and a simple assessment using a liner regression between log-exercise inetsnity and log-LA ranged bellow and above 2 mmol/l of LA. Using the standard assessment, no signifi cant difference was confi rmed between METs@LAr+0.1 (4.7±0.8 METs) and LT (4.6±0.7 METs). In regard to METs corresponding to other LA, using the standard assessment, METs@LAr (4.5±0.8 METs) was signifi cantly lower (p<0.05), and the rest (4.8±0.8 -5.6±0.8 METs) were signifi cantly higher (p<0.01), compared with LT. There was no signifi cant difference between METs@LAr+0.1 determined using standard assessment and simple assessment (4.6±0.9 METs). Also METs@LAr+0.1 determined by the simple assessment had high correlation and good limit agreement with LT (r=0.900, p<0.001 and 0.0±0.8 METs), as well as METs@LAr+0.1 determined by the standard assessment (r=0.930, p<0.001 and 0.0±0.6 METs). In 90% of men and 92%of women, LA reached 2 mmol/l at an intensity of 20, 25 or 30 ascends/minute. The method of evaluating exercise intensity corresponding to 0.1 mmol/l above resting level of LA using a stepping rate of 15, 20, 25 and 30 ascends/minute on a 20 cm platform, taking LA of 2 mmol/l as the termination criteria, can be considered valid as a simple assessment of LT in older individuals.

“…A practice trial of one or two times was given, followed by two test trials with the best performance used for analysis. Cardio-respiratoryˆtness was assessed by performing the 12-minute Walk Test which assessed the maximum distance walked in 12 minutes around a 60-meter rectangular course marked into 5-meter segments (Takeshima et al, 1992;Yamauchi et al, 2005). The score was the total number of meters walked in 12 minutes.…”

Objective: To determine changes in functionalˆtness of older adults following 10 years of peerinstructed community-based exercise program participation. Subjects: Eighteen participants (65.6±8.3 yr) were assessed at pre-intervention (T1), post-12 weeks (T2), and post-10 years (T3 were measured. After completion of an initial 12-wk of professionally-supervised community-based exercises (aerobic, resistance, ‰exibility and balance), the participants continued the exercises under the guidance of similarly-aged peerinstructors for the next 10 years which consisted of 10 min of warm-up, 30 min of elastic bandbased resistance exercise, 10 min of balance exercise and 10 min of cool-down exercises (excluding any formal aerobic exercises), twice a week at a local community center. Results: Changes in AC (-3.0z), CS (-5.8z), SR (＋7.1z), BS (-49.3z) and UG (-36.2z) over 10 years were not signiˆcant (P＞0.05). However, a signiˆcant (P＜0.05) decline was noted in 12-MW (-18.8 z) and FR (-22.7z) over 10 years. Conclusion: Peer-instructed community-based exercises are useful in attenuating the age-associated decline in muscular strength, ‰exibility, and agility over an extended period of time.

In this study we attempted to determine the effects of exercise training at the intensity corresponding to lactate threshold (Thla-) on various health-related variables in sedentary but apparently healthy elderly subjects. Six men and five women volunteers [mean age 68.9 (SD 3.4) years] performed supervised endurance-type training on stationary cycle ergometers for 30 min and recreational activities for 30 min, 3 days a week for 12 weeks. Four men and four women served as the control group [68.8 (SD 4.4) years]. As a result of the training programme, statistically significant increases in maximal oxygen consumption (10%), oxygen consumption at Thla- (18%), distance covered in 12-min walk, side step, and leg extensor power were found in the training group, while no changes occurred in the control group. The changes in serum cholesterol and triglyceride concentrations from the pre- to post-training period were statistically significant. High-density lipoprotein cholesterol remained unchanged, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol tended to decrease following the training programme. These data would indicate that exercise training at the intensity corresponding to Thla- may have favourable effects on overall physical fitness and some serum lipid variables in older individuals.
