“…Repetitive STS exercises are used as an effective homebased exercise intervention strategy, particularly for the elderly (Slaughter et al 2015;Rosie and Taylor 2007). However, there is no information about the exercise intensity (METs) of repetitive STS exercises.…”

This study demonstrated that the EE of an instantaneous movement can be quantified by relating the gross EE and different frequencies of movement. Using this method, we quantified the EE of an STS, which varied depending on participants' anthropometrics. Mets of repetitive STS movement ranged from 2.6 to 7.2. This physiological profile is useful when performing repetitive STS movements as a form of exercise.

“…This lack of interest in assessing muscular strength, muscular endurance and functional performance was a little surprising on two counts. This being the importance of these measures for maintaining overall quality of life especially when using ADT 69 and as home-based exercise can significantly improve these outcomes in low-active older adults 75,79,80 . It is therefore recommended that future studies examine the potential for home-based exercise to improve prostate cancer patients' physical fitness and functional performance.…”

Context: Prostate cancer patients, especially those on androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) experience many symptoms that make it difficult to maintain their independence and quality of life. As ADT act via reducing testosterone production, exercise may offset many of the ADT side-effects and that of the cancer itself. Objectives: This article sought to conduct a systematic review of the literature on whether exercise could reduce symptoms and improve quality of life for prostate cancer patients. Methods: Using relevant databases and keywords, 12 training studies were found meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: Grade A level evidence was observed for the benefits of exercise in improving muscular endurance, aerobic endurance and overall quality of life as well as reducing fatigue in prostate cancer patients. Grade B evidence also suggested that exercise may improve prostate cancer patients' muscle mass, muscular strength, functional performance (walking and sit to stand speed) as well as health-related, social and physical quality of life. These effects appeared greater for group-rather than home-based exercise; especially if these programs including resistance training. Conclusion: It is recommended that most prostate cancer patients be encouraged to exercise regularly by their clinicians and significant others. Where possible, this exercise should be group-based and include some resistance training. Future research in this area should directly compare group-and home-based as well as resistance, aerobic and combined resistance and aerobic training to better elucidate the most effective forms of exercise for this population and what factors affect initiation and adherence to such programs.

“…However, it is typically not feasible to have large, expensive training equipment in day service centers that provide care for older adults. Previous research has shown that training with ankle-weight cuŠs and resistance bands, or using participants' body weight as resistance, to be eŠec-tive but no details were provided regarding the exercise intensity used in these interventions (Yamauchi et al, 2005;Rosie and Taylor, 2007;Shaw and Snow, 1998;Takeshima et al, 2013;.…”

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the eŠects of a 12-week group-based body-weight squat training program on muscle mass, muscle strength, and balance in physically frail community-dwelling older men and women. Fifteen older adults (mean age ＝78.7 yr) who needed assistance performing activities of daily living (ADL) according to long-term care insurance regulations in Japan participated in the study. Participants performed squat exercise in a groupsetting using body-weight as resistance while singing for one set consisting of 48 reps twice weekly for 12 weeks. Body mass, thigh girth, thigh muscle thickness assessed by B-mode ultrasound, knee extension torque (KET), static and dynamic balance (static (SB): sway velocity (SV) standing onˆrm or foam surfaces with eyes open or closed; dynamic (DB): limits of stability) were measured before and after the intervention. Following the intervention, participants signiˆcantly (P＜0.05) decreased body mass and increased KET relative to body mass. Although thigh girth did not change, thigh muscle thickness did increase. There were no appreciable changes in DB nor in SB, except SV standing on aˆrm surface with the eyes open improved. Group-based body-weight squat exercise in physically frail older adults improves muscle mass and strength but has little eŠect on balance parameters.
