Evaluation of motions is the basis for the diagnosis of human locomotor system disorders. Analyses are usually focused on the performance components of this system, i.e. on the skeleton and muscles. However, where comprehensive diagnosis is to be obtained, the motor system must be evaluated as a whole, without omitting any of its parts. So, evaluation of the control function is very important to body motion evaluation. The method that is normally used to evaluate the activity of brain is electroencephalography, which is superior to other brain activity-evaluating methods in many respects. However, EEG has also a major drawback, namely, it cannot precisely locate the activated and deactivated brain regions. This drawback can be avoided by using the sLORETA neurophysiological program, a tool that can transform EEG data to 3D brain images and finding application across a wide range of clinical branches of medicine-neurology, neurophysiology, psychiatry, physiotherapy and also in sports.

Walking as physiological training is reported to be an effective activity in order to beneficially influence and slow the onset of aging in healthy elderly people. However, insufficient evidence exists on how walking influences lung function in seniors. In our study, we aim to evaluate the effect of different types of walking on lung function in healthy seniors. The PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus and EBSCO Essentials databases were searched, while the methodological quality was assessed by the RoB2 tool. A total of seven studies (RCTs) published between 2002–2022 that met the eligibility criteria were analysed in this review. All participants were older adults without any specific associated disease, aged 60 and above. The interventions included structured physical activity; a high/moderate exercise program; long-term regular walking; walking as a part of functional movement training; walking sideways, backward and forward as a part of aerobic training; fast walking; Stepper walking; walking on a treadmill combined with incentive spirometry; and Nordic walking. Overall, most of the mentioned types of walking led to improved lung function in healthy elderly subjects. However, the prescribed Stepper walking program did not improve lung function in healthy seniors.
