Background/Objectives: The purpose of this study was to provide the basic data to develop suitable health and welfare services for the elderly living in urban-rural complex area, by investigating their living environment, economic level and health consciousness.
Method/Statistical Analysis: This study was conducted on the elderly living in K city, Gyeonggi-do. The data was collected by using survey method, which was designed to find out the living environment, economic level, and health consciousness of the elderly in the urban-rural complex area. The data were analyzed by using PASW 18.0 statistical program, descriptive statistics analysis was conducted to analyze the frequency and ratio of each item, and chi-square analysis(χ 2 ) was conducted to find out the difference in health consciousness between living environment and economic level.
Findings: The more they had economic difficulties, the higher they watched TV and listened to radio. and the higher the desire for health and exercise programs. Especially, the elderly living alone had poor living environment and economic level, plus high restriction on health and exercise.
Improvements/Applications: It appears that elderly living alone in urban-rural complex area have a high desire to participate in health and exercise programs, which is thought to require attention and research to remove restrictions on physical activity programs for elderly living alone.

Background/Objectives: This study was built up to delve into the effects of high-intensity combined exercise on body composition, blood lipid and CRP for 8 weeks obese men living in Korea. For this purpose, treatment effects were divided into 8 weeks high intensity complex exercise group and control group.
Method/Statistical Analysis: The purpose of this researchwas to study obesity men in their 50s. The study selected subjects who did not participate in periodic physical activity program in the last year. A total of 16 subjects were divided into 8 high-intensity combined exercise group and 8 control group. Basic statistical analysis was performed on high intensity combined exercise group and control group. 2-way ANOVA was performed to investigate the effects of 8 weeks high intensity compound exercise.
Findings: 8 weeks of high-intensity combined exercise among obese middle-aged men in their 50s showed significant differences in body weight, muscle mass, body fat (%) and WHR, and significant differences in TG, TC, HDL-C, and LDL-C in blood lipids. The CRP showed significant interaction effects in the high intensity combined exercise group and the control group.
Improvements/Applications: High intensity combined exercise showed positive changes in body composition, blood lipid and CRP in middle-aged men. This suggests that high-intensity exercise may have effect tomen in their 50s with extended life.

Background/Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of lower body center strength exercise on blood lipid and homocysteine in middle-aged men. For this purpose, 20 middle-aged men in their 40s were divided into 10 lower body muscle exercise group and 10 control group. The subjects were selected for those who have not participated in regular exercise and weight loss programs in recent years.
Method/Statistical Analysis: The LBMG’s treatment program was followed by muscle exercise around the lower body for 60 minutes, 3 times a week for 12 weeks. CG was to maintain a normal life without any treatment during the 12 weeks of the experiment. Mean and standard deviation of each group and treatment time were calculated and 2-way ANOVA was performed to analyze the treatment effect. The significance level was verified at .05 level
Findings: 12 weeks of lower body muscle exercise showed significant differences in blood lipid variables such as triglyceride, high density lipoprotein, low density lipoprotein, total cholesterol and homocysteine.
Improvements/Applications: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of 12 weeks of lower body muscle exercise on blood lipid and homocysteine change. Lipoprotein, total cholesterol, and homocysteine showed positive improvement. In this respect, strength training of the large muscle center of the lower body is considered to be effective in improving blood lipid.
