The instrument used was a Spiro-ball tool, the tool that is used to measure the inspiratory capacity of a person's lungs.

From the data analysis, it can be concluded that the value of the test result of the two groups (3,376), (p) = 0.002 <0.05 then H0 is rejected, which means that there is a difference in the number of elderly lung inspiratory capacity between the experimental group and the control group. In other words, the exercise of Senam Perkasa Indonesia has an effect on the inspiratory capacity of elderly’s lung.
