A népesség elöregedése a modern társadalom egyik legnagyobb kihívása, ami a világ közösségének problémáit és növekvő érdeklődését eredményezi a népesség egészségével, életminőségével és működőképességével kapcsolatban. Számos evolúcióbiológus egyetért azzal a tézissel, hogy az öregedés a szervezet funkcionális képességeinek „csökkenését” jelenti. A tanulmány célja az volt, hogy meghatározza a 12 hetes, erősítő gumiszalagokkal végzett alacsony terhelésű erősítő edzések hatását idős nők fizikai fittségére, egészségi mutatóira, hetente kettő, illetve hetente három edzéssel. Az adatok elemzése után egyértelműen elmondható, hogy az idősödő (60–75 éves) generáció még jelentős fizikai és szellemi tartalékokkal rendelkezik. Az öregedő társadalom egészségi, fizikai állapota nagymértékben a krónikus betegségek prevenciójától és gondozásától függ. A tudatos egészségmegőrzés, a fizikai állóképesség és a szellemi aktivitás edzése a betegségek megelőzésének leghatásosabb módszerei.
