What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Background: Muscle power, defined as the rate at which muscular force is generated to produce movement, declines more rapidly with age than muscle strength. The decline in lower extremity muscle power is associated with reduced functional independence, impaired mobility, and an increased risk of falls among older adults. While power training has been shown to improve muscle power, balance, and functional abilities, the feasibility and effectiveness of home-based interventions have not been thoroughly investigated. Purpose: The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of home-based lower extremity muscle power training program on functional muscle and balance performance in older adults. Methods: This is a single-blind, randomized controlled trial. Forty community-dwelling older adults will be recruited and randomly assigned to the experimental group (n=20) and control group (n=2
