Intervention(s)
|
Participants are randomised to one of two groups using a computer-generated random allocation sequence of two-fold stratification by gender and age (70-74, 75-79, 80-85) with blocks of 20.
Physical Training (PT) group: Participants receive the multicomponent physical training (PT). This involves undertaking 1-2 supervised sessions of 30 to 45 minutes per week involving walking exercises and progressive resistance and balance training and home exercises. Each participant will attend once a week in supervised walking session. The target intensity will be 13 (moderate value) on the Borg scale. In addition, participants will be advised to walk on their own in order to attain in total 150 min per week by the end of the study. Supervised resistance and balance training will take place once a week in senior gyms. Each training session will include progressive balance training followed by progressive resistance training aiming to improve strength and power for the lower extremity muscles. The training will be performed by pneumatic resistance training machines with SmartCard Software which stores performed workload, sets, reps, and exercise time during each visit. In addition, participants will get a home exercise program including simple balance and functional exercises. The home exercises program is advised to be done 2-3 times/week.
Physical and Cognitive Training (PTCT) group: Participants receive the multicomponent physical training (PT) and a cognitive computer-based training (CT). This involves taking part in PT (as in Physical Training part) and 1-2 supervised cognitive training sessions of 15-20 minutes per week. Progressive cognitive training will include exercises on a computer which target working memory and different components of executive functions. In addit

Primary Outcome(s)
|
10-m maximal walking speed is measured by photocells at baseline, 6 and 12 months.
|
Secondary Outcome(s)
|
1. 6-min walking distance is measured by a stop watch at baseline, 6 and 12 months 2. Dual-task cost in walking speed is measured over a 20 m track with a visuospatial cognitive task at baseline, 6 and 12 months 3. Fall incidence is measured by monthly falls calendar during the intervention and 1 year follow-up there after 4. Executive functioning is measured using the stroop test and trail making A and B at baseline, 6 and 12 months
Other measures: 1. Overall health is assessed during nurses and physicians examinations (GDS, vision, orthostatic test, diseases and medication, resting EKG, blood samples for Hb, blood count, CRP, IGF-1, BDNF, metabolomics) at baseline and 12 months 2. Body composition is assessed using DXA at baseline and 12 months 3. Self-reported difficulty in walking outdoors, 500 m and 2 km is assessed using a questionnaire at baseline, 6 and 12 months 4. Life-space is assessed using a Life-space questionnaire at baseline, 6 and 12 months 5. Global cognitive function (CERAD total score) is assessed at baseline and 12 months 6. Verbal fluency is assessed using a verbal fluency test at baseline, 6 and 12 months 7. Injurious falls is assessed using a monthly falls calendar during the intervention and 1 year follow-up there after 8. Postural balance and lower extremity function is assessed using a Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) at baseline and 12 months 9. Level of physical activity is assessed through self-reporting and use of an accelerometer at baseline, 6 and 12 months 10. Fall-related self-efficacy is measured using the Fall-related self-efficacy (FES-I) questionnaire at baseline, 6 and 12 months 11. Sense of coherence (SOC) is measured by a SOC questionnaire at baseline and 12 months 12. Brain function is measured using Magneto Encephalon Graph recordings for a sub-group of 40 participants at baseline and 12 months
Added 08/11/2017: 13. Isometric knee extension and grip strength are measured at baseline and 12 months 14. Lower body extension power is measured using the Nottingham power rig at baseline and 12 months 15. Level of sedentary behavior is assessed through self-reporting and use of an accelerometer at baseline, 6 and 12 months 16. ADL and IADL are measured with a standardized questionnaire at baseline, 6 and 12 months 17. Emotional well-being is measured with the satisfaction with life scale, Diener 1989; Internationally reliable short form of the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule at baseline, 6 and 12 months, and personality is assessed with the Eysenck Personality Inventory, Floderus B. 1974, at baseline and 12 months and the NEO-Personality Inventory-3 (NEO-PI) at 12 months
