Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Sarcopenia leads to loss of muscle mass and muscle strength during the aging process. It has been reported that eccentric training has some positive effects on the preservation of eccentric strength, with less delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) in older groups, and lower metabolic costs.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is prospective study. The goals of this study are to:

1. Examine the effects of eccentric training on physical function (gait speed, stair climb, chair stand) in older adults.
2. Examine the effects of eccentric training on muscle strength (Isometric strength, Isokinetic strength, power) in older adults.

Older adults

Older adults (Over the 60 years), Subjects did not suffer from musculoskeletal or metabolic diseases.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Eccentric exercise

Intervention Type DEVICE

Eccentric exercise with Eccentron electronic device. Exercise intervention: The exercise intervention is performed to twice a week (Total 8 weeks). Exercise intensity is gradually increased to the number of times by divided into two stages (1-4 weeks; 1st stage),(5-8 weeks; 2nd stage).
