Older women, Otago Exercise Program, 30 second sit to stand

Abstract

An increased risk of falls in the elderly is associated with decreased muscle mass and strength in the lower limbs. The Otago Exercise Regimen (OEP) is a moderately challenging walking, flexibility, strengthening, and balancing exercise regimen. The Otago Exercise Program has been demonstrated to reduce the incidence of falls in elderly individuals by improving balance and muscular strength. This research sought to ascertain how the Otago Exercise Program influenced the lower limb muscular strength of older women. The research was done from October 2020 to May 2021. 26 individuals, split into a treatment group and a control group (13 people each). The moderate intensity Otago Exercise Program was administered to the treatment group for eight weeks, lasting 30 minutes three times each week. In this study, the parameter that assessed the muscular strength in the lower extremities was examined using the 30 second sit-to-stand (30STS) test. Two measurements are made: once prior to and once following the eight-week OEP period.
