Summary

This study tests a goals-based exercise program designed with input from the Black community to help adults aged 45-65 exercise more. Participants will be randomly assigned to different goal-setting and exercise intensity groups. The study tracks activity levels, blood pressure, sleep, and biomarkers of cognitive aging over 12 months to see if the program improves health and slows cognitive decline.
