Disability is a common problem among the elderly and brings a series of adverse effects to them. Rehabilitation treatment methods represented by exercise training and cognitive training can effectively delay muscle atrophy, decreased physical fitness, reduced daily activity, memory loss, and decreased executive ability in the elderly, and prevent secondary injuries such as falls, thereby improving their quality of life and extending their lifespan.
