The characteristics of the occupation, most of the control groups do not work, but the intervention group among the elderly who work and do not work are about the same. The distribution of the age characteristics between groups is almost the same. The different test results between groups showed no difference between groups Sergo, SKJ group and the group of the elderly exercisers with p value 0.05

In the group of Sergo and SKJ, it is seen an increase but in the elderly exercise no increasing of the pull muscle strength. Table 4.

In all three groups is seen an increase in push muscle strength.
