Effects of different exercises on health-related physical fitness among middle-aged and elderly women
Middle-aged and older women are affected differently by different types of exercise. When the three groups-Tai Chi Chuan, walking, and Jiamusi gymnastics-were compared, it was discovered that Tai Chi Chuan had a greater impact on improving balance and trunk flexibility, Jiamusi gymnastics had a greater impact on improving cardiopulmonary fitness, and walking was more effective at strengthening the lower limbs.
