Comparison Of Physical Constitution Of Old People In China During 2000-2005

With the progress of scientific and technological and rapid development of economic and modern civilized life, our country enter an aging society as developed country since we have gone through the baby boom and rapid population increase with into 21st century. The serious agedness of population will take heavy burden to society for this reason government will spend more cost in pension,medical insurance,social welfare time and again. It is obvious that agedness of population should impact the development of social economy and culture. But from the other side it is proved that society has developed larger,people's living standards has increased rapid,health conditions has improved. Accounted by the objective trend of man's subjective will, if we have enough knowledge and objective preparation we will have a effective measure to treat the problem of agedness of population. At present, it is need to do a more comprehensive understanding and grasp of the old person's health condition, the aim to reduce the social pressure caused by aging.General Administration of Sport has carried on national constitution monitoring on a large scale and in a wide range respectively in 2000 and 2005, the aim to obtain basic data about citizen's fitness and to grasp the status of citizen's fitness。This paper takes the physical monitoring data of the elderly reported in national physique monitoring report during 2000 and 2005 as the research object, by means of documentation, mathematical statistics and comparative analysis, analyzes and compares the body shape, enginery and diathesis index between 60 and 69 years old, the purpose of this research is through study to systematic understand old people's physical fitness present situation and the changing tendency in China, analyzes the causes about difference from the data,and propose the reasonable suggestions, provide the scientific basis for further physical health and physical research. The major findings are as follows:1, analysis on physical fitness of elder people in 2000On shape indexes, the male elder people decline with the age on heights weight,chest circumference,waist circumference, the difference on hip circumference is not distinct; the female elder people decline with the age on height,weight,chest circumference,hip circumference. The male elder people's height,weigh,chest circumference,waist circumference are greater than the female at same age. At same age and same sex, height,weight,chest circumference,waist circumference,hip circumference in city are better than that in countryside.On function indexes, the male elder people decline with the age on quiet pulse,vital capacity; the female elder people decline with the age on vital capacity, the difference on quiet pulse is not distinct. There isn't obvious difference between elderly men and women on quiet pulse, the male old people's vital capacity are greater than the female at same age. At same age and same sex, vital capacity in city are better than that in countryside.On diathesis indexes, old people's griping strength,sit and reach,eye closed and single legged-standing,choice reaction time 60-64 age group are clearly better than 65-69 age group. The male old people's griping strength,eye closed and single legged-standing are greater than the female at same age, the female old people's sit and reach is greater than the male. At same age and same sex, old people's griping strength,choice reaction time in city are better than that in countryside.2. analysis on physical fitness of elder people in 2005On shape indexes, the male elder people decline with age on height,weight,chest circumference,waist circumference, the difference on hip circumference is not distinct; the female elder people decline with age on height,weight,chest circumference,hip circumference. The male elder people's height,weight,chest circumference,waist circumference are greater than the female at same age. At same and same sex, height,weight,chest circumference,waist circumference,hip circumference in city are greater than that in countryside.On function indexes, the male elder people decline with the age on vital capacity, the difference on quiet pulse is not distinct; the female elder people decline with the age on vital capacity, the difference on quiet pulse is not distinct. The male elder people's vital capacity is greater than the female at same age. At same age and same sex, vital capacity in city is greater than that in countryside.On diathesis indexes, old people's griping strength,sit and reach,eye closed and single legged-standing,choice reaction time 60-64 age group are clearly better than 65-69 age group. The male elder people's griping strength,eye closed and single legged-standing,choice reaction time are better than the female at same age; the female elder people's sit and reach is better than the female at same age. At same age and same sex, griping strength,sit and reach,eye closed and single legged-standing,choice reaction time in city are better than that in countryside.3, comparison of physical fitness of old people during 2000-20055 years, old people's weight take on a trend of increase, waist circumference increased,hip circumference decreased. It shows that body fat distribute centripetal, that moves towards waist and abdomen.5 years, old people's vital capacity decreased, indicating the decline of cardiopulmonary function.But quiet pulse decreased, its causes still need further study. 5 years, old people's sit and reach,eye closed and single legged-standing decreased. It shows that flexibility and balance ability decline.
