Aging is not just the passage of time, but an accumulation of biological events over time. Resistance training for the elderly is a well-known method of improving muscle mass, strength and bone density, the latter helping to combat osteoporosis. Achieving appropriate levels of function is important to the elderly as it empowers them to carry out most of the daily living skills necessary for independent living. In this study, to create a comprehensive resistance-training program, eight types of air resistance training equipment were used that incorporated six muscle groups, classified into arms, shoulders, chest, back, abdomen, and legs. Items from the “Senior Fitness Test” were employed to assess improvements in the subjects’ bodies as a result of the resistance training. In addition, a structured group exercise approach was used to promote motivation of the elderly participants during the resistance-training program. The results showed that structured group exercise dramatically enhanced elderly motivation during the training. The training used a moderate-intensity exercise prescription and lasted for 12 weeks consisting of two days per week able to significantly increase muscle strength. The increase in muscle strength was confirmed using a series of tests, namely the Arm Curl and 30-Second Chair Stand test, the Single-Leg Stand duration time test, the dynamic balance 8-foot Up-and Go test and the alternate aerobic endurance during the 2-Minute Step Test. However, the exercise prescription did not seem to improve upper and lower body flexibility as assessed by the Back Scratch test and the Chair Sit-and-Reach test, respectively. Finally, there was no significant change in bone density over the training period.
