Summary

The goal of this study is to evaluate how to implement an evidence-based lifestyle-integrated strength and balance exercise (LiFE) intervention in primary care to promote increased physical activity (PA) and improvements in function and quality of life in older adults 75 years or older. This study will evaluate the public health impact of the LiFE intervention using the RE-AIM model: reach (recruitment), effectiveness (PA levels), adoption (physician acceptance), implementation (fidelity), and maintenance (retention, adherence). If the intervention appears feasible, we will use the resultant information to design a larger pragmatic trial.
