“…There are research studies of people who participated in a water exercise program for 12 weeks, 3 times per week, and 45 minutes each. After the program ended, it was concluded that aquatic exercise increased physical performance by strengthening the arm and leg cages (Erkkola et al, 2021). It can be concluded that water exercise is an appropriate activity for the elderly since it provides health development benefits, burns energy efficiently without high risk of injury, and also forms resistance and support forces to maintain balance.…”

This study investigated the impact of a water-based Thai dance routine on balance, muscle strength and endurance, quality of life, and blood glucose levels among elderly individuals. Participants were 128 women aged 60 to 70 from the Chaiyaphum Elderly Club, divided equally into an experimental group and a control group. Assessments were conducted at three intervals: before training, after six weeks, and after twelve weeks. Both one-way and two-way ANOVAs with repeated measures were employed, and Bonferroni's method was used for mean difference comparisons. Results showed that the experimental group, who engaged in the water-based Thai dance routines, exhibited significant improvements in static and dynamic balances, enhanced muscle strength and endurance, better quality of life, and maintained normal blood glucose levels compared to the control group (p < .01). Notably, improvements were more significant after twelve weeks of training than after six weeks. Conversely, the control group showed a slight decline in static balance after twelve weeks, although there were no significant changes in dynamic balance, muscle strength and endurance, quality of life, or blood glucose levels at any stage of the study.

This research study was primarily conducted for the purpose to examine the effect of moderate intensity exercise on lungs functions (IRV & ERV) in young athletes. The participant of the study was randomly selected from the Department of Sports Sciences & Physical Education, Gomal University, KP Pakistan. A written informed consent was taken from all the subjects. A self-made, 08 weeks exercise protocols was applied on the selected subjects. Pretest and posttest data were collected by using spirometer and other helping devices. The collected data were tabulated and were analyzed by using various statistical tools. On the basis of data analysis and findings the researcher concluded there is significant effect of 08 weeks moderate intensity exercise on lungs functions (IRV & ERV).
