Severity of TBI will be determined by the following criteria: Glasgow Coma Scale score of less than or equal to 8 at time of injury, post-traumatic amnesia (PTA) of more than or equal to 7 days, or loss of consciousness of more than or equal to 24 hours (Zupan & Neumann, 2016). This information will be obtained via medical records (with participant consent) or via self/caregiver report if medical records are unavailable (Neumann et al., 2015). Participants will be at least 1-year post-injury (Neumann et al., 2015; Vanderbeken & Kerckhofs, 2017), English speaking, and ambulatory.
Potential participants will be excluded if they already participate in a structured exercise program and/or participate in more than 90 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity per week. Participants will also be excluded if they are unable to give informed consent, unable to follow simple verbal directions, have a diagnosed neurogenerative disorder (e.g., dementia) or self-reported alcohol/drug dependency.
