概要 The purpose of this study was to investigate the reproducibility and utility of a standardised
and externally paced fi eld test (15-m Incremental Shuttle Walk and Run Test [15 mISWRT]) to assess aerobic fi tness in middle-aged adults. 14 middle-aged participants performed the 15-m ISWRT 3 times within one week (Test 1, Test 2, Test 3). Reproducibility of the 15-m ISWRT was tested by comparing 15-m ISWRT performance (distance completed), HRmax , and VO2max for each test. The utility of the 15-m ISWRT for evaluating VO2max over a wide range in middle-aged adults was tested by comparing the range of VO2max obtained from the portable expired gas analyzer with the VO2max reference values and ranges for health promotion published by Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare. In conclusion, the 15-m ISWRT is reliable and useful for evaluating VO2max in middle-aged adults.
