The elderly, balance and exercise

[Anita Jean Ramsey]

Dear All,

I am a masters student studying the effects a water exercise program
has on balance in an elderly population. Along with other resources, I have
searched the data base of this newsgroup and found nothing pertaining to
this specific topic. If anyone has information regarding water exercise
specifically, or non-weightbaring exercise, in realation to balance in elderly
populations I would appriciated the input. I am also interested in
the relationship between exercise (in general), resistance training and
improved balance in aging populations.
Thanks for the help!

Have A Nice Day!

Sincerely,

A.J. Ramsey
