Exercise and health checks for frail older adults
This study tests whether a combination of tailored exercise classes and comprehensive health assessments can improve strength, function, and overall well-being in older adults who are frail or at risk of becoming frail. You would attend supervised exercise sessions and receive personalized health evaluations at a primary care center.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 70 years old or older and live in your own home (not in a facility)
- Your doctor has cleared you to do light-to-moderate exercise safely
- You show signs of frailty or pre-frailty (such as slower walking speed, difficulty with balance, or weakness)
- You can understand and follow exercise instructions and study procedures
- You are willing to attend at least 6 out of 12 supervised exercise sessions over the study period
- You are registered at one of the participating primary care clinics

This study compares different exercise programs designed specifically for frail older adults to see which approach works best. If you're experiencing weakness and slowness, this trial may help you regain strength and function.
This study compares two types of exercise programs for older adults who are frail. It tests whether short bursts of intense exercise (interval training) or steady moderate exercise improves their health and strength more.
This trial tests a special exercise program designed for older adults who are frail or have muscle loss. The goal is to help improve strength and daily function, and participating may help you stay independent longer.
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.
This study tests a community exercise program for older adults to see if it improves physical function and reduces frailty. It may help you feel stronger, more stable, and more confident in daily activities.
This trial studies whether a structured exercise program can improve health and function in frail adults age 70 and older. It may help you build strength, energy, and mobility if you meet frailty and safety requirements.
