- W4387054306 abstract "Physical fitness and functional mobility are some of the major factors determining quality of life in older adults. Neuromotor training including balance, gait, proprioceptive, coordination, and/or agility training is beneficial for improving motor performance, which helps to optimize independent living in older adults. Speed ladder training characterized as moving in maximum possible speed on the ladder placed on the ground is a potentially effective strategy to enhance gait speed, dynamic balance, and reaction time in older adult. Moreover, the speed ladder training could also improve cardiovascular function. PURPOSE: To investigate effects of speed ladder training on neuromotor and cardiovascular functions in older adults METHODS: Thirty-six apparently healthy older adults (63.9 ± 2.9 years, BMI = 22.4 ± 2.7) were recruited to the study. After stratifying the participants based on their gender, age (60-65 years, and 66-70 years), and performance from four-square step test (FSST) (higher, and lower mean), the participants were randomized assigned to two groups. The speed ladder training group (SL; n = 18) performed supervised speed ladder training as fast as they could (3 sets x 8 exercises at 80 - 90 % of heart rate reserve, separate by 30 seconds - 1 minute of rest period) 20 - 30 min per day. The training was conducted 3 days a week for 8 weeks. Participants in control group (CON; n = 18) were asked to keep their usual activities. RESULTS: After 8 weeks, the SL group showed significant improvements in reaction time as assessed by eyes-foot coordination (1.14 ± 0.17 vs 0.91 ± 0.11 seconds; p < 0.001) and 10-meter walk test (5.64 ± 0.47 vs 4.88 ± 0.34 seconds ; p = 0.02), dynamic balance (27.8 ± 8.8 vs 37.7 ± 7.5; p = 0.044 LOS score) and four-square step test (7.79 ± 1.01 vs 5.86 ± 0.70 seconds; p < 0.001) while no change were observed in the control group. Moreover, the reduction of heart rate at rest after 8 weeks of the SL group was significantly greater than that of the CON group (-2.6 ± 5.9 vs 2.0 ± 7.0 beats per minute; p = 0.026). CONCLUSION: Speed ladder training is feasible and effective in improving neuromotor function in older adults." @default.
