Abstract
[b]Aim of the work.[/b] Aim of this study was to estimate the size and direction of movement precision after short and moderately intensive physical effort in elderly women in comparison to young and physically active women.[b]Material and methods.[/b] The study involved 30 women aged 65–70 years, comprising the experimental group and 30 physical education students aged 20–23 years, in the control group. Kinesthetic differentiation was measured by MLS (Motorische Leisstung Serie). Then each of the participants performed a specific exercise 5 times – lifting a 2.27 kg, weight (also applied by Rikli Jones 2001).[b]Conclusions.[/b] The basal and effort levels of kinesthetic differentiation were always lower in elderly women. The applied physical effort did not lower the level of kinesthetic differentiation in either group.
