Influence of Aerobic Training on Physical Fitness and Health Status of Older People of Bahawalpur City

Abstract

    This study investigates the properties of endurance physical activity on the fitness and healthiness of older. The sample was the trial (n = 32) and the direct group (n = 35). The variables were health status through a questionnaire, physical fitness with flexibility, balance, handgrip strength, leg strength, endurance, body mass index (BMI), and cardiovascular reading of older. The experimental group did aerobic training for 12 weeks and the control group in regular walking. Repeated measures of ANOVA and multiple regression were employed for numerical testing. The result depicts experimental group was significantly higher after twelve weeks of training in right and left leg balance (P > 0.02; P > 0.00), handgrip strength (P > 0.01), six-minute walk (P > 0.01), 10 m brisk walking (P > 0.003). It is concluded that the 12-week intervention had a positive effect on the fitness of older people in maintaining health.
