Brief Summary

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

This research aims to identify whether the effects of video-assisted physical therapy, including home resistance training, is superior to traditional physical therapy, education leaflet for example.

This is an interventional research, single-blind, randomized control trail. We recruit high risk of sarcopenia people (low muscle strength and low physical performance) Two groups of participants are divided into traditional group and video-assisted group, both group are taught the same resisted exercise by physical therapist.

Detailed Description

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

Both group will record his/her baseline activity level with a given pedometer. After one week recording, we started initial evaluation (history taking, physical examination) and intervention.

Participants are taught thera-band resisted exercise, including large musculature of upper and lower extremities, each exercise are conducted 10-15 times for 3 sets.

Traditional group will receive an education leaflet and a notebook to record his/ her daily activity and frequency of exercise to record the compliance.

Video-assisted group will receive a QR code, which contain a website of exercise video on the cloud.

After 3 months intervention, participant will come back to our center for final examination.
