“…Although physical inactivity is widespread in the general population, it is especially prevalent among the elderly as a consequence of aging [7][8][9]. The result is age-related physical decline and decreased quality of life [10]. This situation can be reversed, however, through regular engagement in an Adapted Physical Activity (APA) program.…”

The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between cognitive function and an Adapted Physical Activity (APA) program in community-residing older adults. The study was carried out in accordance with the principles of the Helsinki Declaration. The final study sample was 60 adults who received either APA plus cognitive training (experimental group, n=34) or APA alone (comparison group, n=26) for 75 minutes per session twice weekly for 12 weeks. A test battery to evaluate executive function and cognitive skills was performed before (baseline) and after the intervention. Significant differences in motor and cognitive performance were observed between the two groups at the final assessment. The experimental group was noted to have improved mobility, physical performance, and pain symptoms, as well as cognitive competencies in the domains typically affected by cognitive decline with advancing age such as memory, orientation, and fine motor skills.

Cardiovascular and hemodynamic responses to adapted physical exercises in very old adults

Abstract: In very old people, physical activity induces cardiovascular and hemodynamic responses not significantly different from those induced in adult even though some cautions particularly in the early recovery phase after exercise should be exercised.
