Significant improvements in physical functioning were observed in older adults following PNF-based exercise.
The PNF group had measured enhancements in the Short Physical Performance Battery and gait speed.
Randomized clinical trial with 25 older adults evaluated the effects of a PNF exercise program over four weeks.
Improvements in physical functioning highlight PNF's potential as an intervention for older adults at risk of disability.
