Type: article
Abstract: Ageing is a pathophysiological process that brings along a whole host of health conditions like cardiovascular disease, diabetes etc. With an increase in the population over 60, India is at a risk of having a large population with age related health issues. Different types of physical activity and exercise programs have been shown to benefit older adults in lowering the risk of chronic disorders and improve their quality of life. Both aerobic and strength training interventions have their own individual positive effects on the health outcomes, and combining both the approaches can be the key to developing optimum training regimen for elderly population for best possible outcomes.
