Comparing the effectiveness of eight weeks of dynamic neuromuscular stability training on improving balance and lower limb strength in elderly men

Comparing the effectiveness of eight weeks of dynamic neuromuscular stability training on improving balance and lower limb strength in elderly men

The clinical trial has two groups, a control group and an exercise group, and is randomized.

This clinical study aims to investigate the effectiveness of exercise on elderly men in Sanandaj. 22 participants from a nursing home will be randomly divided into two groups of 11: an exercise intervention group and a control group.

Inclusion criteria for the study: Age range between 60 and 79 years, no history of acute injury in different parts of the body, no problems with vision, hearing, and vestibular function, no history of stroke or inner ear disorders, obtaining a minimum score of 24 on the Mental State Examination (MMSE), the ability to walk independently, and negative responses to all questions on the Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire (PAR-Q). The exclusion criteria for subjects from the study were missing three sessions of the exercise program, not being present at the pre-test and post-test, taking medications that affect balance, and reporting a history of imbalance and dizziness.

Exercise group The exercise phase will include a dynamic neuromuscular stabilization exercise protocol. The exercise period will be 8 weeks, three sessions per week, and each session will be 50 minutes. Each session will include 5 minutes of warm-up exercises, 40 minutes of dynamic neuromuscular stabilization exercises, and 5 minutes of cool-down exercises. Exercise movements will include diaphragmatic breathing, supine 90-90, prone, rolling, side sitting, oblique sitting, three-legged standing, kneeling, squatting, and standing up The control group will not do any activity

Muscular strength, static balance, dynamic balance

This study will use a simple randomization method. Participants will be randomly assigned to two groups: an exercise intervention group and a control group. Randomization will be performed at the individual level, with each of the 22 study participants placed in one of the two groups. A computer sequence will be used to randomly assign participants to each group. This method provides high precision and reproducibility and minimizes selection bias. The sequence of participant allocation was generated using a block randomization method with variable block sizes (e.g., 4 and 8) and a 1:1 allocation ratio to ensure a balanced distribution of participants across the two groups. This randomization sequence was generated by a dedicated computer program or a validated statistical software. Specifically, SPSS version 26 was used to generate the allocation sequence.
