Interventions/Control_1

Participants will receive exercise instruction based on an individualized exercise program generated by the TUG system. For those identified as high-risk, the program will be re-evaluated and modified by a physical therapist. Participants will be instructed to perform the individualized exercises at home.

The TUG system assesses physical function by measuring the time required to complete each component of the TUG test: sit-to-stand, straight walking, turning, and sitting down. Based on the measured times, it will calculate scores representing gait function, lower limb muscle strength, and balance function. After the assessment, a printed pamphlet presenting an individualized exercise program-adjusted in difficulty according to each functional score will be generated. Furthermore, if a participant is classified as high-risk based on the assessment results, a physical therapist will conduct an additional evaluation and revise the program accordingly. A printed sheet describing the revised program will then be sent to the participant by mail.

The intervention period will be set at three months, with a frequency of at least three sessions per week. Participants will be encouraged to continue the exercises even after the three-month period has ended.
