The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of 12 weeks water training in shallow and deep part of pool on balance and lower limb muscles strength in elderly. Thirty-six healthy male elder selected as statically sample in three groups. Two experimental groups performed 12 weeks water training in shallow and deep part of pool for three sessions in per week. Balance and lower limb muscles strength tests performed before and after the training protocol. Single leg stance time and Y test were used for measuring static and dynamic balance respectively. MMT system was used for measuring lower limb muscles strength. Findings of this study indicated there is significant improvement on static balance after performing training protocol in shallow and deep part of the pool (p=0.03) .in contrast, dynamic balance of dominance leg has significant improvement in 3 directions of Y test while dynamic balance of non-dominance leg has significant improvement in anterior direction only (p=0.01). On the other hand, there is only significant improvement in hamstring muscles strength after training protocol in shallow part of the pool while all muscles strength except internal and external rotators have significant improvement after training protocol in deep part of the pool (p<0.05). It seems 12 weeks water training in shallow and deep part of pool has significant improvement on balance but performing training in deep part of pool has more significant improvement on lower limb muscles strength in elderly.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of a course of central stability training and water training on balance, flexibility of the trunk area and lower limb function of trainable mentally retarded girls. Research

The research samples included 30 female mentally retarded female students of the exceptional school of the mafia system who were randomly divided into two experimental groups (20 people) and control (10 people). Then, the experimental group performed their exercises in the pool environment for 8 weeks (3 sessions per week) and the control group avoided any activity during the study.

Statistical findings showed that in measuring static and dynamic balance, the effect of central stability exercises was more than water exercises (P <0.05). Also, in flexibility, the effect of exercises in water was more than central stability exercises (P <0.05) and in lower limb function, the effect of central stability exercises was more than in water exercises (P <0.05).

It was observed that exercises for central stability as well as exercises in the aquatic environment increase static and dynamic balance in mentally retarded children. Central stability training can be effective for mentally retarded children by strengthening the deep muscles of the body in the abdomen, pelvis and thighs, as well as the stability and strength of these areas. Since central stability training does not require a lot of equipment and a large space, it can be done with the least facilities.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of 6 weeks of water exercises with and without weight vest on balance indices in middle-aged women with balance deficiency.The present study is a quasi experimental study, which is performed on 26 middle-aged women with available sampling method, which are randomly divided into two groups: water exercises with weight training vest and weightless water training group.The Balance Sheet of Biodex was used to evaluate the balance.After the end of 6 weeks of training, all pre-test steps were repeated in the post-test. To analyzing Data, using Shapirowilk and independent T-test and combined analysis of variance and at the significance level of 0.05.The De Cochain method was used to examine the effect size of the exercises.The results of statistical test of combined variance analysis showed that in both groups with and without weightless vest, the static and dynamic balance of subjects in the post-test improved compared to the pre-test(P≤0.05).Also,the effect of more vest training on non-vest exercises was observed on all the static and dynamic balance indices of subjects.As yet Most researches has used water exercises to improve balance in various societies, including the elderly, and has been less focused on the middle-aged community.Implementing combined water exercises along with weightless vest can well cover balance factors and improve the balance of middle-aged people. Therefore, in order to prevent disturbance in the balance caused by age,it is recommended to take advantage of the benefits of water exercises with weight vest in middle age.
