Abstract
Age related changes in body composition (BC) have implications for physical function and health. A redistribution of and an increase in fat and a loss of muscle mass may result in a substantial decrease in the functional capacity. One of the basic themes in the exercise science research has focused on the effect of exercise on an improvement of physical fitness, usually measured as maximum or peak oxygen uptake (VO2Peak). In seniors, the actual physical fitness state is not only the predisposition of a better physical performance but it is the significant basis of their independency. Aim of this study was to assess the effect of a moving program that contains the most frequently used moving activity – walking – on aerobic fitness described by peak oxygen uptake and changes in BC in healthy senior women.
