Abstract
The present study examined the efficacy of the walking program on bio- chemical parameters among the elderly women. Methods: A total of one hundred elderly women participated in this randomized clinical trial study. The intervention group attended a 24-week walking exercise meeting five times per week. The con- trol group continued with their routine activities. The subjects were assessed in Fasting blood glucose (FBS) and lipid profile before and after 12 and 24 weeks of the program. Results: The mean age of the elderly participants in the study was 68.33 ± 4.55 years. The results of repeated measures ANOVA showed a significant difference between the intervention and the control group in FBS, total cholesterol, triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol after completing the program (for all p < 0.001). Conclusion: The low-cost physical activity intervention could be effective for reducing chronic vas- cular disease risk factors among community-dwelling elderly women.
