NCT ID NCT07302568
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether a 12-week program combining strength training with Taiwanese opera activities can help adults aged 65 and older stay physically fit and delay frailty. 120 community-dwelling seniors in Taipei took part, with half doing the program and half continuing their usual activities. The goal was to see if this fun, cultural approach could improve muscle strength and independence.
