ABSTRACT

In this study, a total of 32 individual musculoskeletal examinations were performed to prevent sarcopenia through squatting exercises and corrective exercises in the elderly, and then squatting exercises and corrective exercises were performed twice a week for 12 weeks to apply and improve various exercise programs, and the following results were obtained. Body composition was significantly increased in skeletal muscle mass and basal metabolism after 12 weeks compared to before participation in the exercise program, and static postural balance was significantly improved in front shoulder, pelvic balance and deflection, left leg medial and lateral cervical and thoracic spine, and pelvic tilt after 12 weeks. Dynamic postural balance showed that the composite imbalance index, excessive upper body lean, lumbar lordosis or kyphosis, and single knee tilt and drop were all highly significant postural balances after 12 weeks. As shown in this study, the variety and precise analysis of exercise prescriptions for customized exercise programs for the elderly is very important, and it is necessary to pay attention to research on the maintenance and promotion of elderly health through practical applications in the field.
