Water Based Burpee Exercises on Functional Capacity in Poste-menopausal Women After Thyroidectomy
Sponsor: Al-Zaytoonah University of Jordan
Summary
Skeletal muscle mass plays an important role with both metabolism and functional capacity. It is well established that the aging process leads to a significant decline in both muscle mass and strength which is associated with frailty , an increased risk of falls and decreased physical fitness and function In this context, high-load resistance training has been shown to reduce the risk of falls and increase strength and functional capacity in middle-aged and/or elderly individuals. Aquatic exercise is one method that has previously been shown to improve muscle strength, balance, and coordination in those of advancing age Although the evidence supports the effectiveness of both water-based burpee exercise in middle-aged and elderly individuals, has, to our knowledge, never been investigated. Thus, the objective of this study was to assess the long-term effect of water-based burpee exercises

water based burpee exercises
water based burpee exercises ( Aquatic exercise ) is one method that has previously been shown to improve muscle strength, balance, and coordination in those of advancing age Although the evidence supports the effectiveness of both water-based burpee exercise in middle-aged and elderly individuals, has, to our knowledge, never been investigated. Thus, the objective of this study was to assess the long-term effect of water-based burpee exercises
aerobic exercises
Traditional aerobic exercises for post-menopause include activities like brisk walking, jogging and cycling. These exercises help improve cardiovascular health, boost metabolism, and enhance mood. They can also be beneficial for maintaining bone density, especially weight-bearing exercises like walking and jogging.
