简要总结
Ageing is associated with a reduction of physical activity, movement efficiency, and quality of sleep. This leads to reduced health and well being in elderly subjects. Exercise training can increase movement efficiency and quality of sleep.
Objectives:
- Laboratory validation test of body acceleration based indexes for movement efficiency and quality of sleep;
- Cross-sectional analysis to assess relations between these indexes and age;
- Intervention study to assess the effect of exercise training on daily life movement efficiency and quality of sleep in ageing subjects
45 healthy human volunteers, age 50-83 yr, BMI 20-30 kg/m2 are divided in control or intervention group. Subjects that will have practiced fitness activities in the previous year, as well as pregnant or lactating women, will be excluded.

入选标准
- •Men and women
- •Age between 50-85 years
- •No fitness activity in the previous year, to amplify training effects on movement efficiency and quality of sleep.
- •Body mass index between 20 and 30 kg/m2, obesity limits the training capacity of subjects.
- •Signed informed consent by the participants
排除标准
- •Age below 50 or above 85 years;
- •body mass index below 20 kg/m2 or above 30 kg/m2;
- •neurologic, cardiologic or invalidating orthopaedic disease;

研究组 & 干预措施
Control
Will not follow any regular fitness activity during one year
Exercise
Follows the fitness program as described in the intervention
干预措施: One year fitness training (Behavioral)
结局指标
主要结局
Changes in movement efficiency
时间窗: At baseline and after 1 year
The primary objective is to identify features of body acceleration to be included in an index to assess daily life movement efficiency. Secondly, the index is related with age to quantify how ageing affects daily life movement efficiency. The third objective is to show the effects of regular physical activity training on this index. The expected improvement of the index would show that exercise delays the age related decrease of movement efficiency.
次要结局
- Changes in quality sleep(At baseline and after 1 year)
