Summary

This program focuses on integrating cognitive exercises and strength training for older adults experiencing mild cognitive impairment (MCI). It aims to enhance cognitive functions such as memory, attention, and problem-solving skills through various stimulating activities. At the same time, it incorporates strength training exercises to improve muscle mass, balance, and overall physical mobility. By addressing both cognitive and physical aspects of health, the initiative seeks to provide comprehensive benefits that may lead to improved quality of life for older adults with MCI. The research contributes valuable insights into the importance of holistic interventions in mitigating the effects of cognitive decline and promoting physical well-being in this vulnerable population.

Interventions

OTHER

Cognitive stimulation and Strength training

The experimental group will participate in a 12-week program to enhance cognitive functions and physical strength through twice-weekly sessions of 45 minutes to 1 hour. Cognitive stimulation activities will improve memory, attention, processing speed, and executive functions through memory games, recall exercises, and tasks that promote focus and quick thinking. Each session will be led by a neuropsychology or occupational therapy professional who will tailor activities to individual needs. Strength training will also occur twice a week, focusing on exercises that strengthen major muscle groups, improve balance, and enhance coordination. Participants will use light weights, resistance bands, and bodyweight exercises, with modifications based on their physical levels. A specialized trainer will supervise the program, progressively adjusting exercise intensity to ensure safety and optimize benefits.
