Brief Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of two exercises to improve physical functioning of older adults with sarcopenia the primary aim of this RCT is

To measure the influence of pilates exercises versus resistance training in elderly with sarcopenia

To introduce an affordable effective and safe exercise care program which prioritizes to make geriatric population independent

Participants will be assessed for all outcome measures at baseline and 3 weeks following an exercise intervention Participants enrolled in pilates exercise group will receive total of 9 exercises and participants enrolled in resistance exercise group will receive total of 8 exercises
Detailed Description: A total sample of 70 of geriatric population with sarcopenia will be collected from Dow University Hospital Ojha Non-probability purposive sampling technique will be used Participants will be screened and referred from medicine family medicine and neurology OPD to physiotherapy OPD Outcome measure assessment will be performed in all patients at two time points baseline and follow up at the end of last session

Outcome measures include short physical performance battery assessment tool SPPB Strength and gait are first evaluated by the ability to perform the tasks of getting up and sitting on a chair five consecutive times and performing the walking speed test 3 meters Time up and go test sit and reach test and 2-minute step test as a measure of physical functioning

After complete assessment at baseline all participants will be randomized to different treatment groups using 70 opaque sealed envelopes containing notes written with new treatment or Standard treatment on n 35 of each The envelops will be scrambled before each participant allow to draw an envelope and thus find out in which group they will be allocated Treatment will be provided to both groups Group 1 will be provided with pilates exercises and group 2 will be provided with resistance exercises Both groups will perform generalized warm up for up to 10 minutes at the beginning and 10 minutes of relaxation exercises at the end of treatment session
