Yijinjing exercise for muscle health in adults with sarcopenia
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests whether a traditional Chinese exercise called Yijinjing, combined with resistance training, can improve muscle mass and strength in people with sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss). It may help you stay stronger and more independent.
