简要总结
In this study, investigators recruited older adults aged 60 to 80 years and utilized a parallel experimental design. A total of 32 participants were randomly assigned to either the experimental or control group. The intervention consisted of a 70-min-long exercise game-based mat training session conducted twice weekly for 10 consecutive weeks. Each session included a 10-min warm-up, approximately 45 min of primary training, and a 15-min cool-down and stretching routine. Participants completed the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) and the World Health Organization Quality of Life questionnaire (WHOQOL, Taiwanese Version) before and after the intervention. Additionally, the functional fitness assessment were conducted.
详细描述
The mat-based exercise facility (Stampede, Taipei, Taiwan) assists participants in exercise training by incorporating interactive light and sound effects to guide users through various exercises while progressively increasing intensity. The training program is divided into two phases: the first phase focuses on fundamental movements, whereas the second phase introduces more advanced exercises. With progress, additional exercise equipment is incorporated, along with increased sets, duration, movement variations, and training intensity. Training sessions can be conducted in a simple, progressive manner or a game-competitive format. Throughout the training, participants wore a heart rate monitor (ALATHEC Obeat1, Taichung, Taiwan) that recorded their exercise intensity and heart rate fluctuations. However, the exercise intensity and frequency were adjusted based on participants' adaptation. This study encompassed five different lighting modes, namely all light on, circle on, four corners, two lines, and diamond. Each mode was paired with different training protocols and movement patterns, supplemented by training equipment, such as medicine balls, resistance bands, and balance pads.

研究组 & 干预措施
The implementation of novel exercise mat training program
The mat-based exercise facility (Stampede, Taipei, Taiwan) assists participants in exercise training by incorporating interactive light and sound effects to guide users through various exercises while progressively increasing intensity.Participants were randomly assigned to either the experimental or control group. The experimental group underwent a 10-week-long exercise game-based mat training, consisting of two sessions per week (70 min/session), using group-based exercise training.
干预措施: The group-based mat exercise training on experimental group. (Behavioral)
Active control
The control group maintained their usual daily activities as active comparator.
干预措施: The control group (Behavioral)
结局指标
主要结局
International Physical Activity Questionnaire
时间窗: The evaluation was conducted at baseline and the 11th week time points.
The questionnaire was applied to evaluate the physical activities. The duration of activity will be converted into metabolic equivalents (METs), with higher MET values indicating a greater level of physical activity.
World Health Organization Quality of Life questionnaire
时间窗: The evaluation was conducted at baseline and the 11th week time points.
The questionnaire was applied to evaluate the quality of life. A self-assessment will be conducted for different dimensions of quality of life, with higher values indicating greater satisfaction in that particular dimension.
Senior fitness
时间窗: The evaluation was conducted at baseline and the 11th week time points.
The regular physical fitness was evaluated by indicated senior fitness test. This fitness test measures the number of repetitions performed within a specific time frame, with higher values indicating better fitness. However, for dynamic balance, a shorter time indicates better performance.
Functional fitness
时间窗: The evaluation was conducted at baseline and 11th week time points.
The functional fitness was evaluated by sport technology-based AFAscan fitness assessment. This fitness test measures the number of repetitions performed within a specific time frame, with higher values indicating better fitness.
