Effects of eccentrically biased versus conventional weight training in older adults.
INTRODUCTION We compared the effects of eccentrically biased (EB) and conventional (CONV) resistance training on muscle architecture, one-repetition maximum (1RM), isometric strength, isokinetic force-velocity characteristics, functional capacity, and pulse wave velocity in older men and women. METHODS Twenty-eight older adults participated in the study (mean ± SD: age = 68 ± 5 yr). Of these,...
متن کاملEffects of strength training versus power training on physical performance in prefrail community-dwelling older adults.
BACKGROUND It has been unclear which training mode is most effective and feasible for improving physical performance in the risk group of prefrail community-dwelling older adults. OBJECTIVE The purpose of the present study was to compare the effects of strength training (ST) versus power training (PT) on functional performance in prefrail older adults. This study was registered at clinicaltri...
متن کاملMotor Learning and Movement Performance: Older versus Younger Adults
Introduction: Motor skills play an important role during life span, and older adults need to learn or relearn these skills. The purpose of this study was to investigate how aging affects induction of improved movement performance by motor training. Methods: Serial Reaction Time Test (SRTT) was used to assess movement performance during 8 blocks of motor training. Participants were tested i...
متن کاملLimited Effects of Set Shifting Training in Healthy Older Adults
Our ability to flexibly shift between tasks or task sets declines in older age. As this decline may have adverse effects on everyday life of elderly people, it is of interest to study whether set shifting ability can be trained, and if training effects generalize to other cognitive tasks. Here, we report a randomized controlled trial where healthy older adults trained set shifting with three di...
متن کاملOnline cognitive training in healthy older adults: a preliminary study on the effects of single versus multi-domain training
It has been argued that cognitive training may be effective in improving cognitive performance in healthy older adults. However, inappropriate active control groups often hinder the validity of these claims. Additionally there are relatively few independent empirical studies on popular commercially available cognitive training programs. The current research extends on previous work to explore c...
