The Effectiveness of Squat Exercise for Improving Pre-Sarcopenia in Order Adults
2026年7月21日 更新者:TSENG,HSIAO-CHIEN、Tzu Chi University
With the growing aging population, it has been reported that approximately 10-20% of older adults have pre-sarcopenia.
Pre-sarcopenia is defined as a decline in either muscle mass or muscle strength.
Previous studies have indicated that squat exercise has significant effects on improving lower-extremity muscle strength and physical performance.
Early intervention through resistance exercise during the pre-sarcopenia stage may increase muscle mass, enhance physical performance, and prevent progression to sarcopenia.
Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of squat exercise on improving pre-sarcopenia among older adults.
It is expected that, following the squat exercise intervention, older adults will demonstrate significant improvements in muscle mass, lower-extremity muscle strength, physical performance, and body composition, thereby alleviating pre-sarcopenia.

干预/治疗 |
|---|---|
|
实验性的:Squat Exercise
The researcher first assists participants in completing the questionnaire and measures older adults' InBody composition, grip strength, and SPPB (Short Physical Performance Battery).
A 12-week squat exercise intervention is then implemented.
Post-intervention assessments are conducted at Week 6 and Week 12.
|
Squat exercise is an effective resistance training intervention that enhances lower-extremity muscle strength, physical performance, and functional ability, thereby helping prevent or delay sarcopenia in older adults.

无干预:Intervention: Usual Care
No specific resistance training is performed, and participants maintain their usual daily activities.

Physical performance assessed by the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB)
大体时间:Baseline, 6 weeks, and 12 weeks
|
Physical performance will be assessed using the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB).
The SPPB consists of three components: balance test, gait speed test, and chair stand test.
Total scores range from 0 to 12 points, with higher scores indicating better physical performance
