Summary
The aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of different types of walking on the selected spirometric parameters in the elderly with no comorbidities. A systematic review was performed using electronic databases such as Scopus, Web of Science, PEDro, Medline, PubMed, EBSCO, only studies published in 2013–2018 have been selected. Following the research, only six articles met the inclusion criteria. Subsequently, these articles were analysed. The results showed that the following types of walking are utilised by the healthy elderly the most: simple walking in the forest, simple walking in an urban environment, high-intensity treadmill walking, regular simple walking lasting 6 months, walking in combination with other physical interventions, walking on a treadmill with a visual feedback and walking on a stair climber. When evaluating the effects of different types of walking with regards to selected spirometric parameters, it turned out that in an appropriate amount, all of the above-mentioned types of walking are an effective way to favourably influence the selected spirometric parameters in the healthy elderly. The only type of walking lacking the positive influence on the selected spirometric parameters was walking on a stair climber.
