Study of Therapeutic Physical Exercise Impact on the Functional Status of Elderly Women

Abstract

This paper presents the results of a complex study of the therapeutic exercise impact on physical fitness indicators in elderly women with structural, metabolic, and functional changes. The study involved 12 women aged 61–66 years. All participants underwent physical examination, risk factor assessment, electrocardiography, and duplex scanning of extracranial vessels; the fasting glycemic level dynamics and PPG, as well as the fat indices, hemodynamics parameters, and functional test results were estimated. The results show that individual complexes of therapeutic exercises can significantly slow the paracmastic processes and enhance the quality of life.
