Research Abstract

Rowing exercise is a safe and efficient exercise for health promotion in elderly people. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of rowing exercise on psoas major muscle size and walking ability in elderly people. The data lead us to conclude that the rowing exercise using by both rowing ergometer and exercise resistance tube is a valuable tool for increasing psoas major and thigh muscle size. Further studies are needed to confirm the effect of rowing exercise on walking ability.
