Movement-to-music exercise program for people with mobility limits
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests whether a movement-to-music exercise program at home can improve cardiometabolic health (health related to heart and blood sugar) for adults who use a wheelchair and are not already exercising regularly. You may benefit if you can exercise using your arms and can do moderate activity safely.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You use a wheelchair (manual or power) or an electric scooter as your main way to get around.
- You have at least two “heart and blood sugar risk” factors (for example, high blood pressure, diabetes/prediabetes, high cholesterol, or similar risks).
- A doctor has cleared you for exercise and you are medically stable enough to exercise at home.
- You are able to use your arms for exercise, and you are at least 18 years old.
- In the past month, you did less than 90 minutes per week of moderate aerobic exercise, and you have not been in a structured exercise program in the past 6 months.
