Can virtual workouts fight prediabetes in seniors?

NCT ID NCT05497960

Summary

This study tested whether a live, online group strength training program called Vivo is a practical and acceptable way for older adults with prediabetes to exercise. Researchers enrolled 28 sedentary adults over 60 to see if they would attend and enjoy the virtual workouts, which aimed to overcome common barriers like gym access and lack of social support. The goal was to see if this approach could help control prediabetes by improving muscle strength and physical function from home.
