Weight Loss and Exercise Effects on Rate of Torque Development and Physical Function in Overweight Older Women
JOURNAL OF AGING AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY(2023)
摘要
Exercise training (EX) and weight loss (WL) improve lower extremity physical function (LEPF) in older overweight women; however, effects on rate of torque development (RTD) are unknown. This study aimed to determine the effects of WL + EX or WL alone on RTD, and relatedly LEPF, in overweight older women. Leg strength was assessed using isokinetic dynamometry, and RTD was calculated (RTD200 = RTD at 200 ms, RTDPeak = peak RTD, T2P = time to 1st peak). LEPF was determined via clinical functional tasks. Women (n = 44, 69.1 +/- 3.6 years, 30.6 +/- 4.3 kg/m2) completed a 6-month trial in EX + WL or WL groups with similar weight loss (-9.8 +/- 4.2%, p > .95). EX + WL had greater improvements in (a) most LEPF tasks (p < .001) and (b) RTD200, compared with WL (36% vs. -16%, p = .031); no other RTD parameters differed. Changes in RTD parameters and LEPF were not related (all p > .05). RTD is responsive to EX but is not associated with LEPF in older women.
