Respondents in the mind-body exercise group will follow an exercise program aimed at improving muscle strength, balance, body composition, and respiratory function through gentle, integrated movements, focusing on gentle resistance, breath control, and relaxation. The exercises will be conducted three times a week for 8 weeks, with assistance at each session to ensure safety and correct technique. The program consists of three components: Warm-up (5 minutes): stretching the head, shoulders, hips, and knees, Main exercise (30 minutes): gentle resistance training using resistance band tubing and balance and coordination exercises from Otago exercise Cool-down (10 minutes): static stretching and breathing meditation with chair yoga.
