HIFT for People With Mobility-Related Disabilities

Status unconfirmed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Mobility Limitation, Physical Disability

In brief

Investigators will examine the feasibility and health outcomes following a high-intensity functional training intervention for people with mobility-related disabilities. In addition to participant recruitment, attritions rates, and satisfaction, investigators will assess changes to both physical health outcomes (e.g., strength, body composition) and psychosocial outcomes (e.g., quality of life). The findings will provide evidence for the efficacy of HIFT to improve various health outcomes for a population that experiences health disparities in access to, and engagement in, community-based exercise.
