Summary

The purpose of the proposed study is to compare the effects of supervised group-based walking and non-supervised individual-based walking interventions on frailty, cognitive function and quality of life among inactive older adults in Saudi Arabia.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

supervised group-based walking and non-supervised individual-based walking interventions

Group exercise interventions tended to be systematic and supervised by professionals. The current intervention is proposing to conduct a randomized control trial that is not only examining the nature of walking on older adults' well-being but also involving the elements of group-based and professional supervision intervention, aiming at comparing with the individual-based intervention without professional supervision. Qualified professional fitness trainers (1 male and 1 female separately for male and female groups, respectively) will be involved in the group-based intervention programs in order to provide appropriate guidance and supervision to the participants. Whereas, the non-supervised individual-based intervention will be conducted by a research assistant (males and females) to ensure the attendance and general safety, but without providing professional advice or supervision.
