AB - PURPOSE: This study analyzed the effects of health gymnastics combined with squats on the physical fitness and balance ability of elderly women.
METHODS: The participants were 30 elderly women recruited from a welfare center and randomly distributed into two groups. The experimental group (n=15) consisted of health gymnastics with squats, and the control group (n=15) consisted of health gymnastics without squats. The physical fitness was measured using chair sit-to-stand tests, sit-and-reach tests, and 2.4m timed up-and-go tests, and the balance ability was assessed by measuring the sway area using Biorescue.
RESULTS: The participants showed significant difference within the group on the chair sit-to-stand tests, sit-and-reach tests, 2.4m timed up-and-go tests, balance ability tests after intervention (p < .05). In the chair sit-to-stand tests and balance ability measurements, the experimental group showed significantly more positive differences between the groups than the control group (p < .05). The results of the sit-and-reach tests and 2.4m timed up-and-go tests were similar in the two groups (p > .05).
CONCLUSION: These findings showed that health gymnastics incorporating squats demonstrated superior efficacy for elderly women participants to health gymnastics without squats.
