Exercise program to reduce frailty in older adults
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a Spanish health-clinic–guided exercise program can improve frailty in people who are starting to become frail (“pre-frail”). It may help you build strength and walking ability through supervised physical activity.
