Abstract

For problems with balance and strength in mentally retarded student, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of a selective training program on static balance & isometric strength in female educable mental students with mental retardation. 26 females’ educable mental retardation, between 10 and 15 years of age participated in this research and they were divided into two different groups, experimental group (Age: 13.72±1.82 Years, Height: 146±8.46 cm, weight: 43.15±15.94 kg, IQ: 61.38±7.17 mental age: 7.16±1.22 years) and controls group (age: 14.06±1.88 years, height: 148.92±10.75 cm, weight: 46.48±11.07 kg, IQ: 61.30±5.03, mental age: 7.18 ±1.07). Experimental group performed a selective training program for 8-week, three times a week, and each section lasted for 50 minutes performs strength and balance exercise training. One leg Balance with opened and closed eyes were evaluated using one leg stance test, and isometric strength test for trucks extensors were assessed using an isometric dynamometer before& after training program. Repeated measured between subject analysis revealed that experimental group, improved significantly (P≤0.05) on Balance with eyes opened and closed in addition improved significantly on leg strength. Therefore, this training program had affirmative effect on static balance & isometric trunks strength and can be applied to educable mentally retarded children.
