The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of Adapted Physical Activity (APA) programs offered by Sport-Health Centers (MSS) in reducing the risk of falls in the elderly.
The effectiveness of adapted physical activity in preventing falls will be assessed by the evolution of SPPB before and after APA. Evaluate the impact of APA on physical tests such as the UGT, the single-legged support test, to predict the risk of falling. \- Evaluate the impact of APA on risk factors associated with the risk of falling, such as fear of falling, overall perception of one's health, and depression. All tests will be assessed at baseline and at the final visit 3 months after APA
