Background: The decline in muscle strength in elderly people is one of the main causes of disability. Accidental fall due to lack of muscle strength and decreased balance. Lead to fractures and affect ADL function. Increase unintended hospitalization rates and long-term care for economic costs. Objective: To explore the feasibility of medicine ball exercise as an upper limb resistance training and effects of medicine ball exercise on muscle strength and body balance in the elderly. Method: Study the pretest-posttest research design and purpose sampling. The object is an elderly person aged 65 or older, the long-term care institution in Changhua County. Can stand alone for more than 5 min, and exclude double upper limbs or some upper limbs disability, severe dementia, inability to follow instructions, Hypertension (≧160/100mmHg). A total of 23 cases were received. Training tool: Medicine Ball, weight: 30% pre-measured grip strength is 1RM (repetition maximum, one time over maximum weight). The first four weeks of the intervention of the exercise experiment is the control period; The exercise experiment involved six weeks as the experimental period. During the first 1-2 weeks of the experiment, 8 actions were performed with 30% RM muscle strength and repeated 6 times, repeated 12 times in the 3rd-6th week, twice a week. The grip strength test, Get-up and Go Test, Functional Reach Test and Berg Balance Scale were performed to assess muscle strength and body balance before and after the ball movement. Results: The results of Wilcoxon analysis without parental number were used. The right hand grip test was Z=-3.94, P
