![Page 9: Exercise For Seniors Gianni Grasso, Kate Mathews, Amanda Mahler](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032801/56649dda5503460f94ad003f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Discussion
All made small, but significant improvement in balance
Reasons why there weren’t greater improvements
No significant changes in health and well being
Majority would choose Wii Fit over traditional exercises
Communication was a factor

Purpose
To promote physical fitness among the senior population
To increase flexibility among older adults in order to increase their quality of life
To provide seniors with a safe and efficient exercise program
To increase posture and breathing in older adults
![Page 20: Exercise For Seniors Gianni Grasso, Kate Mathews, Amanda Mahler](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032801/56649dda5503460f94ad003f/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Methods
204 subjects were recruited from eight different senior activity centers and 176 of the subjects were to complete the study
Subjects were randomly assigned to three groups:
1) Experiment I: complete silver yoga with stretching and meditation
2) Experiment II: shortened silver yoga without the guided-imagery meditation
3) Wait-list
![Page 21: Exercise For Seniors Gianni Grasso, Kate Mathews, Amanda Mahler](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032801/56649dda5503460f94ad003f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Methods continued
• The study was conducted three days a week for 24 weeks
• Subjects were tested based upon their body compositions, cardiovascular–respiratory functions, physical functions and the range of motion.
![Page 22: Exercise For Seniors Gianni Grasso, Kate Mathews, Amanda Mahler](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032801/56649dda5503460f94ad003f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
ResultsResults were gathered at the end of the 24-week period
Subjects from Experiments I and II had a significant improvement
Experiment I had improvement in their cardiovascular–respiratory functions, physical functions and the range of motion
Experiment II had almost the same results as Experiment I except blood pressure remained the same.
![Page 23: Exercise For Seniors Gianni Grasso, Kate Mathews, Amanda Mahler](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032801/56649dda5503460f94ad003f/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Discussion
Posture was based on six primary types of movements: flexion, extension, hyperextension, abduction, adduction and rotation
They focused on increasing older adults’ range of motion and progressive muscle relaxation while still being aware of their physical limitations
![Page 24: Exercise For Seniors Gianni Grasso, Kate Mathews, Amanda Mahler](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032801/56649dda5503460f94ad003f/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Discussion Continued…
The Silver Yoga exercises proved to be beneficially for senior’s posture, balance, and range of motion
The consistency of the program (3 days a week for 24 weeks) allowed the participants to gradually improve their physical functions
Silver yoga does not have a strong correlation with improving body composition or blood pressure

Randomly assigned to control or experimental group
Finger tracking sine wave computer program
Aerobic classes
![Page 35: Exercise For Seniors Gianni Grasso, Kate Mathews, Amanda Mahler](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032801/56649dda5503460f94ad003f/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Procedure
Pretest

Post test
5 days after last aerobic class
3 ten second trials
![Page 36: Exercise For Seniors Gianni Grasso, Kate Mathews, Amanda Mahler](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032801/56649dda5503460f94ad003f/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Results
Attendance 71%- 100%
Pre test
Experimental (averaged below -10)
Control (averaged below -5 to -10)
Post test
Experimental (improved to above 10)
Control (decreased to -20)
![Page 37: Exercise For Seniors Gianni Grasso, Kate Mathews, Amanda Mahler](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032801/56649dda5503460f94ad003f/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Discussion
Both groups= pre test below average performance
Control group decreased more during pretest
Experimental group improved by 26%
Each group no significant aerobic difference
More testing because this test was a small number of participants
![Page 38: Exercise For Seniors Gianni Grasso, Kate Mathews, Amanda Mahler](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032801/56649dda5503460f94ad003f/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Conclusion
Elderly men and women aged (72-91 years), visuospatial information processing, as measured by finger tracking movements, may improve with aerobic exercise
![Page 39: Exercise For Seniors Gianni Grasso, Kate Mathews, Amanda Mahler](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032801/56649dda5503460f94ad003f/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Overall Conclusion…
Aerobic exercise= more effects than cardiovascular functioning for seniors
The technique of distraction is effective in more than two studies
Meditation and aerobic activity was shown to increase quality of life
