Summary

This study tested a 14-week playful exercise program called FEXO for frail adults over 75 living in nursing homes. The program combines aerobic, strength, balance, and flexibility exercises in a fun, recreational format. Researchers measured improvements in physical function, thinking skills, and frailty levels. The goal was to see if making exercise enjoyable can help older adults stay healthier and more independent.
