Summary

This study looks at whether breathing exercises, balance training, or a mix of both can help older adults (60+) improve their muscle strength, balance, and physical abilities. Over 8 weeks, 27 participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups to see which approach works best. The goal is to find simple ways to reduce fall risk and keep seniors active and independent.
