The purpose of this study was to clarify how low frequency components of the body's center of gravity, mainly 1 minute waves (1-MWs), are related to the mechanism of compensation for the venous blood pooling in the legs during static standing in humans. The 1-MWs of foot pressure center, oscillations of body circumferences and other parameters were analyzed with cross-power spectral analysis. The 1-MW of the calf's blood volume propagated to the chest via the venous system. This was inversely synchronized with the 1-MW of the body's center of gravity. It was speculated that muscular pumping of the calf related to the 1-MW of the body's center of gravity might be compensating for the venous blood pooling in the legs.
