Introduction Relevant monitoring data show that falls have become the leading cause of death in adults over 65 years old, especially among elderly people who have no exercise habits. Physiological function decline caused by the aging process can be slowed with specific training. It is believed that exercises focusing on the core muscles can benefit balance ability among the elderly. Objective The paper explores how core muscle training impacts balance performance in the elderly. Methods The article randomly divides elderly volunteers (n=24) into two groups. The experimental group received specific core physical conditioning, and the control group received no intervention. The physical quality indicators of both groups were compared and statistically analyzed after the experiment. Results The physical fitness indicators (weight, aerobic endurance, static balance ability) in the groups differed (P<0.05). Conclusion Core training can improve the elderly´s functional physical ability and static balance capacity. Evidence level II; Therapeutic Studies - Investigating the results.
