Abstract
Background:
Loss of balance and falling down is the sixth leading cause of death in elderly people. Accordingly, exercises that promote postural control are so important for this population. The purpose of present study was investigation of functional balance training on the static and dynamic balance in healthy elderly men.
Methodology:
For this purpose 40 men aged 65-80 years were selected conveniently. All of participants carried out TUG and Sharp and Romberg tests as pre and post tests in order to measure dynamic and static balance orderly. The experimental group participated in an intervention of functional exercises for ten weeks, 3 sessions each week.
Results:
The results showed that there is a significant difference between the average modified Sharpend Rumbberg test with open eyes in the functional exercise and control group (f (1.38) =19.06 .p=0.001) Also there was a significant significant difference between the moderated mean of Sharpend rumbberg test with closed eyes (f (1.38=169-22 .p=0.001) and lifting and walking test functional exercise and control group (f(1.38)=115-36. p=0.001)
Conclusion:
According to principle of specificity of exercise, since the functional exercises are similar to real circumstances of daily life, so these kinds of training can help the postural control of healthy elderly men.
