Abstract

Elderly people have reduced muscle mass, decreased physical function and an increased hospitalization probability, which affect their quality of life and even lead to death in severe cases. Scholars at home and abroad have studied progressive body muscle loss associated with increase of age, decreased muscle strength and muscle function impairment syndrome and how to prevent them. Much research have been done preventing diseases and improving muscle strength through exercising, nutrition, and drug intervention, and these measures have been proven effective. This article describes the effect of exercising in reducing muscle disease, improving muscle mass, and physical abilities of the elderly. This study can not only effectively enrich the research results related to exercise therapy of sarcopenia, but is also in line with national strategies and policies such as the “national fitness campaign,” “Healthy China 2030 Plan Outline,” and “Healthy China Action 2019-2030” depending on the health conditions of the elderly population. Besides, this paper aims to develop individualized exercise programs, provide scientific basis for the prevention and treatment of sarcopenia in the elderly, reduce the risk of fall damage in the elderly, and promote the physical health level of the elderly.
