Reducing Falls With Progressive Resistance Training for the Oldest Old Adults With Sarcopenia — ReFit  

Aging Clinical Trial

Official title:
Reducing Falls With Progressive Resistance Training (ReFit) for the Oldest Old Adults With Sarcopenia. A 12-month Randomised Controlled Trial (RCT).

Clinical Trial Summary

This study will investigate the effects of 12 months of high-intensity progressive resistance training compared with a control group on fall-rate in older adults with sarcopenia.

Clinical Trial Description

Despite the wealth of theoretical benefits, existing literature on resistance training for falls prevention is not conclusive, given the sub-optimal resistance training paradigms, poor study quality, and use of multimodal training interventions, precluding isolation of the resistance training benefits. It is also possible that resistance training benefits for falls reduction will be most evident in those with sarcopenia to begin with as a risk factor for their falls. We will therefore conduct a randomised, controlled trial assessing the effects of resistance training reduce falls in the oldest old adults with sarcopenia, as well as to increase strength and muscle mass. ;
