The effects of 3 months exercise walking on the Quality of Life (QOL) was examined in thirty-seven healthy middle-aged women. All subjects took part in a exercise walking regimen at an intensity of 50% maximal oxygen uptake (V0_2max) for 3 months and were divided into two groups judging from exercise duration per week following the training period. The high volume exercise duration group (n = 23; 51±7 yrs; 224±52 min/week) get to the necessary exercise duration for health promotion drawn up the Japanese Ministry of Welfare, such as 140min/week for 60's. In contrast, the other group did not have enough the exercise duration and served as the low volume exercise duration group (n = 14; 49±8 yrs; 129±26min/week). A modified Croog's questionnaire was used to assess the QOL. The QOL questionnaire consisted of 59 questions and this assessment was based on five components including : performance of social roles, physiological state, emotional state, intellectual function and general satisfaction. Following this training protocol, the weight, body mass index and %Fat decreased significantly in the both groups, whereas the V0_2max and blood pressure improved significantly in only high volume exercise duration group. Regarding the QOL, physiologic state in both groups and emotional state and total QOL score in only high volume exercise duration group improved significantly following training period. There was a significant negative correlation between the initial and the change score in the performance social roles, physiologic state and emotional state. In addition, there was a negative relationship between the change in the V0_2max and change in the QOL (performance social roles, intellectual function and total QOL score). In conclusion, these results suggest that 3 months exercise walking could improve QOL in middle-aged women. There was great relationship between the QOL and VO_2max. Furthermore, the effects was great on the low of initial QOL states.
