Gambaran Kekuatan Otot Pada Lansia Di Bplu Senja Cerah Paniki Bawah

Abstract

The aim of this study was to find out the profile of muscle strength on elderly at BPLU Senja Cerah Paniki Bawah. This was a descriptive study with cross sectional design. There were 26 respondents who met the inclusion criteria, consisted of 10 elderly men and 16 elderly women. Respondents were selected by using purposive sampling method. The measurements of the muscle strength were done by using 1 RM method while doing elbow flexion, elbow extension, shoulder flexion, shoulder extension, shoulder abduction, knee flexion, knee extension and dorsoflexion. Data were analyzed manually and computerized then presented in tabular form. The result shows that the average muscle strength in elderly men were greater than women and the average muscle strength of respondents that were included in the age group 60-79 years old were greater than those in 80-99 years.Abstrak: Tujuan dari penelitian ini yaitu untuk mengetahui gambaran kekuatan otot pada Lansia di BPLU Senja Cerah Paniki Bawah.

The effect of brain vitalization exercise on muscle strength and endurance in people with dementia

“…At the age of 30 years old there was a peak in muscle strength, then after the age of 80 years began a decline of 30-40% (Setaiwan & Setiowati, 2014). In line with the results of research (Pinontoan et al, 2015), which confirms that muscle strength tends to decrease with age.…”

“…Decrease in muscle strength is also caused by the aging process (Pinontoan et al, 2015). This process has an impact on muscle strength and functional capacity (the result of a combination of nerve and muscle changes) which tends to disappear (Pion et al, 2017).…”

“…Sarcopenia is a fundamental factor in the phenomenon of quantitative loss of muscle mass (Macaluso & De Vito, 2004). At the age of 40 years, a person begins to experience a decrease in muscle strength and at the age of 75 years and over the process of decreasing muscle strength runs faster (Pinontoan et al, 2015). At the age of 30 years old there was a peak in muscle strength, then after the age of 80 years began a decline of 30-40% (Setaiwan & Setiowati, 2014).…”
