A sample of 30 subjects were
randomly divided into three equal groups and out of them group A and group B
were considered as experimental group whereas the group C was considered as
control group. Among the experimental groups, group A received combined
weight-bearing and non-weight-bearing exercises in which each exercise consists
of both weight-bearing and non-weight-bearing phase in a single repetition. The
subjects of group B received weight-bearing exercises where each exercise
consists of weight-bearing phase alone. The pre and post test values were
obtained using three standard outcome measures namely STREAM scale, Tinetti
scale and Timed Up and Go test. The pre-post values were statistically analyzed
and the results showed that weight-bearing exercises were more beneficial than
the combined weight-bearing and non-weight-bearing exercises.
