The Effects of a Home-based Multicomponent Lower Extremity Training Technique and Self-Efficacy for Exercise on Physical Function in Healthy Older Adults: A Randomized Controlled Trial

During the COVID-19 pandemic, older adults have reported physical inactivity. For example, they did not participate in a community activities program in their regions because they would fear being exposed to COVID-19. Therefore, the first purpose of this study is to develop a home- based multicomponent lower extremity training (MLT) technique to improve the frequency of self-practice without a trainer, including non- participation in an offline fitness classes at community centers. The second of this study is to evaluate the home-based MLT technique’s effects on flexibility, muscle strength, and physical performance in older adults.These work outcomes can help achieve the new intervention study without contact experts in the training period on older adults.I have filmed exercises of the MLT technique that would be used for older adults (participants of this study) to perform in their home.For older adult participants to do home-based exercise in their home, I have created a booklet and videos for a home-based exercise program.
