Knee extension strength
upin humans1
Comprehensive geriatric intervention programme improves knee extension strength in humans (greater improvement in the class-styled group) (CS 18.5%, HB 10.6%; P = 0.003).
“Both interventions significantly improved KES (CS 18.5%, HB 10.6%), normal walking speed (CS 3.7%, HB 2.8%), and MT (CS 3.2%, HB 3.5%). Greater improvement of KES was observed in the CS group (P = 0.003).”
