Exercise program for older adults with memory decline
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This six-week exercise program helps older adults with mild memory or thinking problems and trouble walking stay independent and safe at home. You will work with a trainer and wear an activity tracker to track your progress.

This study tests an “adaptive” exercise plan that adjusts over time to help improve aerobic fitness and your body’s fitness response in people with mild memory problems or early Alzheimer’s. It may help you safely build the kind of fitness that supports brain health, while researchers monitor changes with fitness testing and blood work.
This study tests whether regular physical exercise can improve memory and thinking skills in people 65 and older who have mild cognitive impairment. Researchers want to see if staying active helps protect brain function.
This trial tests whether a structured exercise program can help people with mild to moderate memory or thinking problems. You'll work with a trainer to improve your fitness and brain health.
This trial tests a gentle exercise routine (aerobic calisthenics) to see if it helps older adults who have both memory and walking problems. It is designed for people living in rural areas of Fujian Province who do not exercise regularly.
This trial tests if a group-based exercise program can help prevent declines in thinking and physical abilities in older adults. It may be a good fit if you are at least 50, can walk on your own, and want to stay active.
This study compares two types of exercise programs to see which one better helps older adults at risk of falling. If you join, you will attend exercise sessions three times a week for 8 weeks.
