Table 1 Evolution, odd ratio (OR) and significance for the Posture (P), Balance (B), Motricity (M) and Individual Motor Profil (IMP) of PBM method for the low, middle and high levels of balance groups

From: Relationship between a three-month physical conditioning “posture-balance-motricity and health education” (PBM-HE) program on postural and balance capacities of sedentary older adults: influence of initial motor profile
