Abstract
The purpose of this study was to clear the relationship between walking performance and physical fitness in elderly people to make up an exercise program. The physical fitness test and walking ability tests were requested to the 31 elderly women (81.7 ± 5.0 yrs of age). The walking ability showed significantly correlated with the lower extremity muscle strength (squat point), balancing function (foot-balance) and agility. Although the walking ability and balancing function are significantly related, the lower extremity muscle strength has strong influence on balancing function.
