Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two different types of activities in improving physical fitness in older adults. The main question it aims to answer is whether a person completing a large-scaled art project has similar physical improvements as a person completing a more traditional exercise program.

Participants will be asked to either stand for up to an hour while completing a painting across a large canvas or stand for up to an hour while doing body weight exercises. Researchers will compare the painting group to the exercise group to see if physical improvements are the same or different.
