| Abstract |
Current methods to promote level of independence and health status of elderly likely involve various types of exercises on a hard surface. Several studies also reported challenging effects of sand surfaces, without clear evidence to support its benefit over a hard surface. This study compared effects of 6-week exercise training on hard and sand surfaces on walking ability in 30 community-dwelling elderly using a randomized control trial with double-blinded design. The subjects were trained using a Thai dancing program on hard (n=15) and sand (n=15) surfaces for 50 minutes/session, 3 times/week over 6 weeks. Subjects were assessed for their walking ability using the 10-meter walk test (10MWT) before the training and at week 3 and 6 after training. The results indicated that exercises on a sand surface significantly improved walking ability of the subjects since 3 weeks after training, and the effects were continued after 6 weeks. As outcomes of the 10MWT are important for overall walking ability, health status and levels of independence for elderly, the incorporation of a sand surface into the training may promote rehabilitation outcomes, particularly in a current era that the number of these individuals is dramatically increased. |
