Cardiometabolic Health Intervention Using Movement-to-Music Exercise
Recruiting now · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Cardiometabolic Risk Factors in Adult Wheelchair Users
In brief
The study aims to test the benefits of a 24-week, cardio-emphasized Movement-to-Music exercise program for reversing cardiometabolic health risk factors compared to asynchronous, standard exercise programs among 132 adult wheelchair users. The targeted cardiometabolic health factors are waist circumference, triglycerides, "good" cholesterol, glucose, and blood pressure. Additionally, a 12-week follow-up phase (weeks 25-36) is included to see whether the gains are maintained.
