Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate any changes in fullerton advanced balance(FAB) and balance efficacy scale(BES) in exercise intervention according to low-intensity resistance exercise for 16 weeks.BRThe subjects of the study were women aged 75 older living in Jin-gu, Busan, who were selected for sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesiry by diagnosis of sarcopenia (ASM/height, kg/h²; 5.38 or less) and sarcopenia obesity (ASM/weight, % ; 25.6% or less, % fat, % ; 30% or less). The participants were randomly assigned into 4 groups; sarcopenia resistance exercise group (S-RG; n=10, 75.7±3.0 yrs), sarcopenia control group (S-G; n=12, 77.2±2.8 yrs), sarcopenia obesity resistance exercise group (n=11, 76.5±3.3 yrs), sarcopenia obesity control group(n=12, 76.1±2.9 yrs).BRFor the statistical analysis, such as t-test, and Two-Way Repeated measures ANOVA was calculated using SPSS Version 27.0. As a result of this study, the interaction effect with the interaction effect was shown in the FAB and BES test.BRBased on the research results, the low intensity resistance exercise program using dumbbells seems to play an important role as an exercise program in improving balance ability and physical activity for elderly women with sarcopenia and sarcopenia obesity in community centers, elderly welfare facilities, and homes.
