HERITAGE FAMILY EXERCISE STUDY

这是一项由NHLBI资助的研究人员发起的为期五年的研究， 涉及140个白人和黑人家庭和大约600个人，其中200人 他们是在明尼苏达大学招募和培训的 生理卫生与运动科学实验室。招聘和 运动训练于1996年12月完成。三年来 已获得额外的NIHLBI资金，用于数据分析和 手稿准备工作。这项研究的目的是评估 实验室20周运动训练对体能的影响 CVD和NIDDM的适合性和危险因素，并确定 遗传学对反应的可变性的贡献。

This is an investigator initiated, NHLBI-funded, five year study, involving 140 white and black families and about 600 individuals, 200 of whom were recruited and trained at the University of Minnesota's Laboratory of Physiological Hygiene and Exercise Science. Recruitment and exercise training were completed by December, 1996. Three years of additional NIHLBI-funding has been obtained for data analysis and manuscript preparation. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effects of 20 weeks of exercise training in the laboratory on physical fitness and risk factors for CVD and NIDDM and to determine the contribution of genetics to variability in responsiveness.
