Exercise Training

The present intervention will consist of a 6-month long, twice-weekly, home-based, monitored exercise training program, with training sessions lasting around 40 minutes, with 48 sessions in total. The program will be delivered in the form of 6 x 4-week "blocks", which will progressively increase in intensity and complexity, as the participants physical capacities develop. Additionally, and in addition with current physical activity guidelines, participants will be instructed to perform at least an additional 70 minutes of purposeful activities per week. Study trainers will discuss the content of these activities with each individual participant to facilitate selection of suitable activities (e.g., brisk walking, jogging, stair climbing or bike riding), but their selection will be left to the discretion of the individual participants, and activity logs will be maintained throughout the study period.
