Methods: A randomized controlled trial study was conducted with the following groups: TKD (n = 13), MCT (n = 12), WE (n = 12), and CG (n = 14), considering three\/weekly 60-min\/sessions for 16-weeks. A two-factor mixed analysis of the variance model with repeated measures was performed. Results: TKD improved significantly more in phonetic fluency (p = 0.021; ES = 1.89) than WE and in general health (p = 0.033; ES = 1.11) than CG. Both TKD and MCT improved significantly more than CG in the 30 s chair stand, arm curl, chair sit-and-reach, timed up-and-go, maximal isometric handgrip strength, and postural balance for the eyes closed condition in the area and anteroposterior velocity (p &lt; 0.05). Conclusions: Only TKD improved the area (p = 0.008; ES = 1.00) and mediolateral velocity (p = 0.019; ES = 0.79) for the eyes open condition, and mediolateral velocity (p = 0.021; ES = 1.57) for the eyes closed condition. Blood pressure, morphological variables, and food consumption frequency showed no significant intragroup or intergroup interactions. TKD equivalently improved HRQoL and physical fitness to MCT, with better postural balance in older females.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm13237250","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,29]],"date-time":"2024-11-29T08:24:14Z","timestamp":1732868654000},"page":"7250","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Adapted Taekwondo Improves Postural Balance and Health-Related Quality of Life Concerning Multicomponent Training and Walking Exercise in Older Females: A Randomized Controlled Trial (TKD and Aging Project)"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3948-8280","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pablo","family":"Vald\u00e9s-Badilla","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Activity Sciences, Faculty of Education Sciences, Universidad Cat\u00f3lica del Maule, Talca 3530000, Chile"},{"name":"Sports Coach Career, School of Education, Universidad Vi\u00f1a del Mar, Vi\u00f1a del Mar 2520000, Chile"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5219-5896","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tom\u00e1s","family":"Herrera-Valenzuela","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Activity, Sports and Health Sciences, Faculty of Medical Sciences, Universidad de Santiago de Chile (USACH), Santiago 8370003, Chile"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7001-9004","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Eduardo","family":"Guzm\u00e1n-Mu\u00f1oz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Kinesiology, Faculty of Health, Universidad Santo Tom\u00e1s, Talca 3460000, Chile"},{"name":"School of Kinesiology, Faculty of Health Sciences, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma de Chile, Talca 3460000, Chile"}]},{"given":"Jordan","family":"Hernandez-Martinez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Activity Sciences, Universidad de Los Lagos, Osorno 5290000, Chile"},{"name":"G-IDyAF Research Group, Department of Physical Activity Sciences, Universidad de Los Lagos, Osorno 5290000, Chile"},{"name":"Programa de Investigaci\u00f3n en Deporte, Sociedad y Buen Vivir, Universidad de Los Lagos, Osorno 5290000, Chile"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2172-867X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Izham","family":"Cid-Calfucura","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Activity, Sports and Health Sciences, Faculty of Medical Sciences, Universidad de Santiago de Chile (USACH), Santiago 8370003, Chile"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5359-6587","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Edgar","family":"V\u00e1squez-Carrasco","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Occupational Therapy School, Faculty of Psychology, University de Talca, Talca 3460000, Chile"}]},{"given":"Juan","family":"Aristegui-Mondaca","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Physical Education School, Faculty of Education Sciences, Universidad Cat\u00f3lica del Maule, Talca 3530000, Chile"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-9453-2488","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pablo","family":"Aravena-Sagardia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Physical Education Pedagogy, Faculty of Education, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma de Chile, Temuco 4780000, Chile"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7571-9181","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jorge","family":"Mota","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Centre of Physical Activity, Health, and Leisure, Laboratory for Integrative and Translational Research in Population Health (ITR), Faculty of Sports, University of Porto, 4200-450 Porto, Portugal"}]},{"given":"Jos\u00e9","family":"Zapata-Bastias","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sports Coach Career, School of Education, Universidad Vi\u00f1a del Mar, Vi\u00f1a del Mar 2520000, Chile"}]},{"given":"Cristian","family":"Luarte-Rocha","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Facultad de Odontolog\u00eda y Ciencias de la Rehabilitaci\u00f3n, Universidad de San Sebast\u00edan, Concepci\u00f3n 4080871, Chile"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4625-9128","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Braulio Henrique Magnani","family":"Branco","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Postgraduate Program in Health Promotion, Cesumar University, Maring\u00e1 87050-390, Paran\u00e1, Brazil"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Vald\u00e9s-Badilla, P., Ramirez-Campillo, R., Herrera-Valenzuela, T., Branco, B.H.M., Guzm\u00e1n-Mu\u00f1oz, E., Mendez-Rebolledo, G., Concha-Cisternas, Y., and Hernandez-Mart\u00ednez, J.
