Brief Summary

The number of elderly has been increasing in recent decades. Current studies focused on the risk factors of poor physical performance, poor daily activity performance, and even disability in the elderly. We planned to evaluate the physical performance of elderly dwelling in the community and designed a multimodal exercise program which can improve physical performance, prevent disability and promote quality of life.
