Resistance training and aerobic exercise have been recommended for sarcopenic patients. However, whether balance training would further benefit for sarcopenic patients on the basis of resistance training and aerobic exercise remains unclear. The purpose of this study is to explore the effect of balance training on improving the mobility of elderly patients with sarcopenia. Balance training involves doing exercises that strengthen the muscles that help keep the aged upright, including the legs and core. These kinds of exercises can improve stability and help prevent falls.
