Train Your Brain SC: Exercise for People With Mild-moderate Cognitive Impairments
Sponsor: University of South Carolina
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to test a 12-month, twice a week, moderate intensity exercise and coaching program (an in-person group and a distance group) for adults with mild-moderate cognitive impairments living in South Carolina. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Is the program practical to conduct, and it is acceptable and enjoyable? The hypothesis is that it will be possible to recruit participants, obtain the desired dosage of moderate intensity fitness and strength training twice a week. 2. Are their changes at 3, 6, 9 and 12 months in endurance, mobility, cognitive function and perception of cognitive function? The hypotheses are that endurance, strength and mobility will improve and cognitive measures will not decline (remain the same or improve). Participants will exercise twice a week in-person with a coach or at a distance location with coaching support for up to 12 months.
