This study aims to investigate the actual status of physical activity, exercise environments, and body composition among local residents and clarify the interrelationships among these factors.
Others
The findings obtained are expected to form the basis for obesity prevention measures (targeting those at risk for lifestyle-related diseases) within the community and contribute to extending residents' healthy life expectancy.
For physical activity, the Japanese version of the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ) Version 2, developed by the World Health Organization (WHO), will be used. This internationally standardized questionnaire assesses physical activity levels separately for work, commuting, and leisure and is used in many countries and regions. For the exercise environment, the Japanese version of the Abbreviated Neighborhood Environment Walkability Scale (ANEWS) is used. For body composition, a body composition analyzer is used.
Body composition data will be measured using a body composition analyzer. Measured items include weight, body fat percentage, skeletal muscle mass, visceral fat level, fat mass, fat-free mass, muscle mass, body water content, body water percentage, estimated bone mass, basal metabolic rate, BMI, and obesity level.
