“…Longterm TCC practice appeared to be helpful for attenuating the agerelated decline in general physical function, and thus a suitable exercise for the elderly to modify their gait and movement patterns (Wolf et al, 1997;Lin et al, 2006;Mak et al, 2017). Older people with long-term TCC experience have been shown to have increased muscle strength (Jacobson et al, 1997;Lan et al, 2000;Wu et al, 2002b), balance (Wu, 2002;Wu et al, 2002b;Mak and Ng, 2003;, inter-joint coordination (Wang et al, 2010) and sensory organization in postural control (Wong et al, 2001;. These changes are all important components for preventing falls in the elderly (Tse and Bailey, 1992;Wolfson et al, 1996;Wolf et al, 1997;Hass et al, 2004), providing some explanation for the observed reduction in falls in older people with TCC training (Hass et al, 2004;Choi et al, 2005;Mak et al, 2017).…”
