Sažetak (engleski)
The global population aged 60 years and over will reach nearly 2.1 billion by 2050. During the aging process, the strength of the musculoskeletal system decreases and it is essential to be moderately physically action to prevent negative changes in muscle cells. Because the handgrip strength test is a robust predictor of the overall state of strength and physical frailty, it was used in this study to demonstrate physical functionality and muscle weakness related to physical activity. Examinees who participated in the study were elderly people aged 60 years and older who regularly performed exercises twice a week under the guidance of physiotherapy students. This research aims to present the results of the measurement of the handgrip regarding regular physical activity. Data were analyzed by paired sample t-test and p-value <0.05 was considered significant. Handgrip strength test results (for a total of 47 subjects) show a statistically significant difference in both hands before and after the exercise period (right hand: p= 0.0085, left hand: p= 0.0001), suggesting that regular exercise affects grip strength as a predictor of older people’s physical functioning and improvement of their quality of life.
