 Dr. Otsuka Mitsuo is Assistant Professor in Faculty of Sport and Health Science of Ritsumeikan University, and his research manuscript was accepted and published in PLoS ONE, which collaborated with Professor Tadao Isaka, and Toshiyuki Kurihara. In this study focused on block start of sprinters, it was demonstrated that the effect of a wide stance width at the set position on the subsequent start-dash performance. We conclude that a widened stance width at the set position affects the hip-joint kinematics and rear hip power generation during the block start phase, but the effect on the block-induced power was based on individual characteristics when considering sprinting performance during the whole block start phase.

Mr. Natsuki Hasegawa, is Graduate Student in Faculty of Sports and Health Science, his research manuscript was accepted and published in American Journal of Hypertension, which collaborated with Professor Dr. Motoyuki Iemitsu,


Dr. Satoshi Fujita and Dr. Kiyoshi Sanada and Assistant Professor, Dr. Toshiyuki Kurihara and Dr. Toshiyuki Homma. The study revealed that muscular lipids (IMCL and EMCL contents) were associated with risk of arterial stiffness, and this association differed with gender and age. In particular, IMCL and EMCL showed different contributions to the risk of arterial stiffness, they may be new candidate predictors of arterial stiffness in middle-aged and older females.

2015/11/06 Dr.Otsuka Mitsuo is Assistant Professor in Faculty of SHS, and his research manuscript was accepted and published in Biomedical Human Kinetics


 Dr. Otsuka Mitsuo is Assistant Professor in Faculty of Sport and Health Science of Ritsumeikan University, and his research manuscript was accepted and published in Biomedical Human Kinetics, which collaborated with Professor Satoshi Otomo, Professor Tadao Isaka, Toshiyuki Kurihara, and Chihiro Akutsu in Ikeshima Junior high school. In this study on hurdle running in physical education, a teaching materials to help improve junior high school students’ fundamental ability to repeatedly run and jump with a high and far-reaching travelling motion was developed.  It has been suggested that the new teaching material for teaching hurdling in physical education which aims to improve the ability to jump high and far over hurdles improves hurdle running time and improves the fundamental ability to repeat running and jumping travelling motor skills in contrast to traditional materials.
