Summary

The objectives of the present research is to observe the effects of a multimodal program with augmented reality on cognition, functional fitness, quality of life, and physical activity in older people.

Conditions

  • Aging
  • Older Adults

Interventions

OTHER

Multimodal exercise with augmented reality

The intervention program has a duration of 12 weeks with 3 sessions per week of 60 minutes each. The multimodal group with augmented reality was divided into 4 sub-groups. The session consisted of six stations where participants simultaneously trained physical aspects (cardiorespiratory fitness, strength, balance, and flexibility) and cognitive aspects (reaction time, memory, decision making, semantics, and processing speed). Four stations are the same of the previous group and the other 2 stations are with augmented reality. These 2 stations worked the same cognitive and physical components but through the portable exergame platform for the elderly.

Control group

The control group continued their daily activities for 12 weeks and did not participate in any new physical activity program during the study.
