Evaluation of the Effects of a Cognitive-Motor Fall Prevention Program on Fall Risk Factors
Sponsor: EZUS-LYON 1
Summary
The goal of this interventional study is to compare in community dwelling elderly people the effects of two physical activity programs to prevent accident falls : "SILVER XIII EQUILIBRE" program and "VIVIFRAIL" program, on several risks factors such as executive functions and functional capacities. Participants will perform a 1 hour physical activity session during 10 weeks and effects will be measured using a multidimensional test battery. "SILVER XIII EQUILIBRE" program contains cognitive-motor exercises where participants have to perform two tasks simultaneously such as answering math questions while walking whereas "VIVIFRAIL" program contains multifactorial exercises such as walking, balance training and resistance training in single-task condition. The main question it aims to answer is : • Does physical activity enriched with simultaneous cognitive exercises enhances the effects ?

Interventions
Cognitive-motor Physical Activity
Physical activity program that consist of 1 sessions per week during 10 weeks (from Week 2 to Week 11). Each session includes a 10 minutes warm up with light walking, 45 minutes of cognitive-motor exercises where participants have to perform two tasks consequently (for example, walking while answering math questions or throwing a ball while reverse walking) and 5 minutes of stretching exercises.
Multifactorial Physical Activity
Physical activity program that consist of 1 sessions per week during 10 weeks (from Week 2 to Week 11). Each session includes a 10 minutes warm up with light walking, 45 minutes of multifactorial exercises that consists of high speed walking, resistance training and balance training in single task condition and 5 minutes of stretching exercises.
