Official title
Breaking Prolonged Sitting with High-intensity Interval Training to Improve Cognitive and Brain Health in Older Adults: a Pilot Feasibility Trial.
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This trial will examine whether interrupting 3.5 hours of sitting every 30 min with 6 min high intensity interval training (HIIT) breaks compared to light intensity interval training (LIIT) will improve brain health in cognitively normal older adults. This trial will test the feasibility of HIIT breaks to sitting. It will also address several important but unanswered questions: (1) Does interrupting sitting with short HIIT breaks improve frontoparietal function? (2) Can interrupting sitting with HIIT breaks improve cognitive functions?
