For the variable inspection, in order to measure the body composition, the bioimpedance equipment was used, and for the physical fitness test, Senior Fitness Tes was implemented. And, in order to survey the level of lipoprotein, the subjects were taken for blood of 10 ml from the anticubital vein, and it is sent to the Green Cross Reference Lab. to analyze TC, TG, and HDL-C. The data were analyzed by using the two-way ANOVA with repeated measures, and the statistically significant level is set for a=.05. The measurement result was shown as follows. 1. From the exercise group implemented with the 12 weeks of the gate-ball Program, weight, body fat rate, body fat volume, and abdomen fat volume showed the significant difference before and after the gate-ball exercise. However, there was difference between the two groups. 2. From the exercise group implemented with the 16 weeks of the gate-ball exercise, the total cholesterol and HDL showed the significant difference before and after the gate-ball exercise.
