The purpose of this study was to find out whether activities to improve lifestyle exerted influence on body composition, physical fitness, the number of steps taken daily and blood pressure. The subjects, aged 41 to 70, were heavy (BMI 25% or over) and with mild hypertension (SBP 140-160mmHg, DBP 90-100mmHg). Results obtained were as follows: 1. Body weight and BMI decreased significantly both in men and women. 2. Both men and women showed improvements in physical fitness, and women in particular showed significant increase in their aerobic power and total points. 3. The number of steps taken daily increased significantly both in men and women. 4. Blood pressures of both men and women tended to fall, and the fall in women's diastolic blood pressure was significant. Our results suggest that activities to improve lifestyle had a good influence on body composition, physical fitness, the number of steps taken daily and blood pressure.
