Effects of Multicomponent Training in Older Adults

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Sarcopenia

In brief

The purpose of the study was to determine whether community-dwelling older adults would experience improved patient-reported outcomes and physical performance after completing an 8-week multicomponent exercise training program when compared to a control group who did not complete the intervention. As an additional aim, subjects who participated in the exercise intervention were asked about their experiences to identify factors that contributed to positive health behaviors in community-dwelling older adults.
