ABSTRACT
The main purpose of the present study was to determine the effect of Tai-Chi and Chi-Kong exercises on the
static and dynamic balance, flexibility and motor performance of male disabled regarding to their motor-physical
actions. About 30 people of the motor-physical disabled of Tabriz City Rehabilitation clinic had been voluntarily
participated in this study. These disabled were divided into two equal groups of experimental group (15 people)
including the mean, deviation, age 52.68 years old and weight 74.43kg and height 170.27cm and the second 15
ones group as control group including the mean age 26 years old, weight 75kg and height 172.2cm in this study.
The statistic balance and dynamic balance, flexibility (seating and press test) and motor performance (UPDRS
test) as well as former samples and after eight-week exercises were all analyzed. Dependent t was applied to
compare the inter-group evaluation and t-independent was also used in order to compare the intra-group cases (p
< 0.05). The results after eight week showed that the significant recovery exercise could be concluded that the
statistic and dynamic balances, flexibility and motor performance of disabled were also observed significantly (p <
0.05). Based on the results of the present study, the exercises of Tai-Chi and Chi-Kong could increase the static
and dynamic balances, flexibility and motor performance as well as muscular strength and power of all disabled.
Hence, it was also recommended all disabled to apply the related process potentially.
Key words: exercises of Tai-Chi and Chi-Kong, rehabilitation, balance, flexibility, motor performance
