Summary

This study tests a home strengthening program using the BandPass system—a Bluetooth exercise band and mobile app that gives real-time feedback. Researchers want to see if older adults (65+) can use it easily and if it improves their strength and mobility. Participants will do a 12-week program with in-person and virtual check-ins.
