Summary

The aim of this project will be to compare the acute effects of breaks from sedentary behavior using dual-tasking on cerebral blood flow, vascular function, cognitive functions and blood pressure in elderly people. Participants will perform, in random order, three experimental sessions (control, break with dual-task and standard break (\[walk\]). All sessions will have a period of 4 hours in sedentary behavior. In the standard break session and in the break session with dual-task participants will take walking and dual-task breaks every 30 minutes, and in the control session they will remain seated without breaks. Before and after this period, cerebral blood flow, vascular function, cognitive functions and blood pressure will be assessed.
