AB - Objective：This study aims to examine how lumbar stabilization exercise and resistive exercise affect lumbar and lower extremity muscular strength of the aged.
Method：Randomly selected 15 female senior citizens aged 65 or older at S, Y, and J senior citizens’ center located in D city who meet the requirements for the study were divided into a resistive exercise group of 7and a stabilization exercise group of 8 for which 60-minute-exercise sessions were administered three times a week for 12 weeks. Measuring lumbar and lower extremity muscular strength was measured six weeks and 12weeks after exercise, respectively.
Results：First, both resistive exercises and stabilization exercises are effective to improve lumbar muscular strength.
Second, resistive exercise is effective to improve flexural muscle strength as well as lower extremity muscular strength, and stabilization exercise is effective for both flexion and extensor muscle strength.
Conclusion：The 12 week lumbar stabilization exercise program appeared to be effective to improve lumbar and lower extremity muscular strength of the aged. This indicates that applying this program to identify and prevent frequent risk factors of falling can lead to the prevention of secondary problem factors of falling accidents.
