Summary

This study tested a 12-week precision exercise program using a smart rehabilitation system in 42 elderly residents of long-term care facilities who had sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss). Participants exercised 3 days per week, 2 sessions per day, with personalized routines. The goal was to see if the program improved muscle strength, joint movement, thinking skills, daily activities, quality of life, and mood. Results are not yet reported, but the approach aims to ease symptoms and improve well-being without curing the underlying condition.
