Clinical Trial Summary

This is a small pilot trial of a 5 month aerobic exercise intervention in participants with MCI (n=20) to begin to compare the effects of randomization to use an exercise buddy or to exercise without an assigned buddy. The investigators hypothesize that participants with MCI who exercise with a buddy will have higher adherence to the protocol and greater improvement in 400 meter walk time.


Clinical Trial Description

The overall objective of this pilot study is to determine feasibility and gather data that will inform the design of a larger, multicenter, randomized, controlled trial. Specifically, the investigators aim to:

2.1 Determine the feasibility of recruiting persons with MCI and a buddy for an exercise intervention.

- For MCI participants who do not identify a buddy, the investigators will determine the interest and feasibility of recruiting volunteers from the community to be an exercise buddy.

2.2 Determine the effects of having an exercise buddy on:

- adherence to the protocol

- 400 meter walk time, an objective measure of improved physical fitness

- retention and satisfaction for both participant with MCI and buddy

2.3 Establish a scientific partnership with a community based exercise facility. ;
