Abstract Gout has been bothered many elite athletes when they retired from competition, It is believed that it was caused by high level purine and lactic acid. High blood pressure and diabetes are not only list in prevalence diseases but the death rate also grade up rapidly. Total peripheral resistance (TPR) and hyperglycemia have been emphasized by protect medicine researchers in aging currently. Purpose: Rugby player has been recognized that it is the most energy expenditure game. The metabolic rates reach to 6000 cal/day. It is our interesting to detect the rugby players blood pressure, blood sugar and uric acid in aging. Method: Forty-five national level rugby players were referred for subjects. They are divided into four groups depend on their age. They are below 20 yrs, 20-34 yrs, 35-49 yrs and 50-64 yrs respectively. Systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, blood sugar and uric acid were test by cardinal tien hospital biological examination center. ANOVA and least significant difference (L.S.D) are used to check the different level and groups’ comparison. Results: From ANOVA analysis and L.S.D test, we found systolic pressure (147.25-130.1 mmHg) diastolic pressure (81.5-73.62 mmHg) and blood sugar (96.29 -79.64 mg/dl) are different significantly. Uric acid is not different, but they are a little more than safe range (7.54-6.39 mg/dl). Conclusion: From analysis and discussion, we found that systolic pressure, diastolic pressure and blood sugar are affected by aging obviously. Except systolic pressure, the testing items are located in safe range.
