The purpose of this study is to elucidate the effects of walking exercise in a hypobaric hypoxic environment on peripheral blood circulation by monitoring skin temperature using thermography in obese adults. Four obese male adults volunteered for the study. The subjects walked for 60 minutes on a treadmill in two environments: a hypobaric hypoxic environment (HE) at 1500m simulated altitude, and normobaric normoxic environment (NE) at sea level. Before (at rest), 30 minutes and 60 minutes post exercise in HE and NE, the following parameters were measured: skin temperature of upper body (anteriror aspect, posterior aspect) with thermography. Areas of high skin temperature at rest in HE showed a tendency larger than that in NE. The skin blood flow was temporarily improved by acute HE. Areas of skin high temperature at 30 minutes and 60 minutes post-exercise in HE showed a tendency larger than that in NE. The skin temperature (mid-palma region) of a fixed point at 60 minutes post-exercise in HE was significantly higher than in NE (p<0.05). The skin blood flow can be temporarily increased by acute walking exercise in HE. These results suggest that walking exercise in a hypobaric hypoxic environment may be a useful method for improvement of peripheral circulation and exercise treatment in obese adults.
