[...]water depth through water walk exercise had increased PQ, BW/PQ and Average power(angular velocity of 60°/sec) of trunk flexor in post-exercise was higher than pre-exercise. [...]water depth through water walk exercise had not increased Isokinetic strength(angular velocity of 120°/sec) of trunk extensor in between post-exercise and pre-exercise. [...]in advanced research addressing the change of trunk muscle function, the hip joint was studied for a variety of subjects. [...]for the two groups, Peak Torque and BW/PQ in Trunk Extension increased, and in BW/PQ, only WWG showed more increase than CWG. [...]all the conditions of chest height and waist height contributed to improving trunk muscle, and it is considered that water walk exercise in the condition of waist height will be easy.
