Summary

This study tested a 10-week program that combines resistance exercises with cognitive tasks (like memory games) in 38 frail older adults with chronic musculoskeletal pain. The goal was to see if the program is feasible and can improve frailty and thinking skills. Participants were assigned to either the dual-task training or resistance exercise alone. The results will help design larger studies.
