Power training has been shown to improve muscular strength, which translates into better balance and mobility for older adults. Balance and Tai Chi training have been shown to enhance proprioception, which translates into better agility and dynamic balance. The current study investigated the effects of a whole body exercise program, compared to a walking program, on the functional capacity of older adults. For the exercise program, older adults met 2 days per week for 8 weeks and performed warm-up and stretching activities; upper and lower body, abdominal, and balance exercises; and perceptual-motor games. For the walking program, older adults met 2 days per week for 8 weeks and were asked to walk at a comfortable pace. Upper and lower body power was assessed using the 30 s Arm Curl and 30 s Sit-To-Stand tests, respectively. Static balance was assessed by measuring the length of time that participants could balance on one leg with their eyes open. Agility and dynamic balance were assessed using the 8-Foot Up-and-Go test. Although no external weight was used during training, the exercise program enhanced functional capacity by increasing upper and lower body power, improving agility and dynamic balance, and static balance for the right leg. The walking group improved static balance for both the left and right legs. In conclusion, some components of functional capacity can be improved by exercising 2 days per week for 8 weeks using either a structured exercise program or a self-paced walk.
