Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a physical strength measuring method safe and appropriate for the aged. SOLUTION: In this method, 'stair going up-down time' of a plurality of testees are clocked, and 'repeated side jump' and 'vertical jump' are also measured. The correlation of the clocked value of 'stair going up-down time' with the measured value of 'repeated side jump' and with the measured value of 'vertical jump' is obtained by correlational expressions. With 'stair going up-down time' clocked, the physical strength level corresponding to the measurement of 'repeated side jump' and 'vertical jump' can be assumed by the correlational expressions.

[0004] To explain the method of measuring "vertical jump", a blackboard is first placed on a wall and 20 cm is placed on the floor from the wall.
Draw a line parallel to the wall at m. The subject adjusts the body orientation so that either the left or right body side faces the wall, and stands with both feet together so that the wall side feet circumscribe the line drawn on the floor. Attach chalk powder to the fingertips of the hand on the wall, stretch your arms straight up (do not raise your heels), touch your fingertips to the blackboard, and mark with chalk powder. Next, lower the raised arm, jump up as high as possible without taking a run, and extend the arm again to mark the chalkboard with the chalk powder of the fingertip at the highest point. This jumping operation is performed twice, and the vertical distance between the higher mark and the mark given before the jump is measured, and this is recorded as the subject's record.

Next, a method of measuring the "repeated side jump" will be described. First, a line is drawn on the floor surface, and a line parallel to the first line is drawn on both sides of the line at an interval of 1 m. Subject stands across the center line and “starts”
At the signal, side step left or right and move until you cross the line or touch the line. Then step in the opposite direction and straddle the center line again, stepping over the line opposite to the start or touching the line. Then, the robot moves stepwise in the opposite direction until it crosses the center line again. This movement is repeated for 20 seconds, and one point is given each time the user steps over or touches the line, and the number of points taken is recorded.
