Summary

This study looked at whether adding special neck exercises to a regular exercise program could help older adults with muscle loss (sarcopenia) living in nursing homes. 31 people took part, with one group doing standard exercises and the other adding neck-focused proprioceptive training. The goal was to see if these exercises could improve neck movement accuracy, reduce fear of moving, and lower pain-related negative thoughts. The results may help design better exercise programs for this group.
