Can a little feedback keep seniors moving better?
NCT ID NCT07437521
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether giving healthy adults aged 65 and older regular check-ins and personal feedback during a 12-week exercise program helps them stick with it and improve their physical abilities. 54 participants were split into two groups: one got the feedback, the other did the same exercises without it. The goal was to see if feedback boosts adherence, function, and confidence.
