Virtual exercise program aims to keep aging veterans on their feet
NCT ID NCT07206368
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a virtual group exercise program combined with health education can lower fall risk and increase physical activity in older veterans who have both obesity and signs of muscle loss (sarcopenia). About 50 veterans aged 55 and older will take part. The goal is to see if adding targeted exercise to health education is more effective than health education alone.
