- Abnormal upper body posture can impact exercise therapy effectiveness for musculoskeletal diseases, particularly in patients with rotator cuff issues.
- A study with 90 male patients who had rotator cuff repair explored the outcomes of three different exercise groups: a corrective exercise group, a rotator cuff exercise group, and a control group, measuring shoulder function and muscle strength over time.
- Results showed that the corrective exercise program significantly improved shoulder function and muscle strength compared to traditional rotator cuff exercises, especially in patients with forward shoulder posture.
This study aimed to assess the effect of a combined exercise program on lower-extremity alignment and knee pain in patients with genu varum. Forty-seven middle-aged women with knee pain and genu varum were randomly divided into the exercise (EG, n = 24) and control (CG, n = 23) groups. The exercise group underwent a combined exercise program lasting 60 min in one session, three times a week for 12 weeks.

Previous studies focused on walking speed, walking endurance, and balance. However, no studies have examined the changes in fall-related self-efficacy after CWT.

Purpose: Exercise effectively enhances physiological adaptation, performance, and health-related markers in healthy individuals and diseased populations. However, the type and amount of optimal exercise remain controversial. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) took the top spot in the American College of Sports Medicine worldwide survey on fitness trends in 2018.

- Menopause leads to declines in bone density, fitness, strength, and balance, prompting the need for effective exercise interventions.
- A study with 20 postmenopausal women explored the impact of a new sports tennis type exercise over 12 weeks on aerobic capacity and hormone levels.
- Results showed significant improvements in aerobic capacity and increases in levels of FSH and NTX, suggesting that this exercise can help prevent bone loss and boost fitness for postmenopausal women.
