Sarcopenia Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Randomized-Control Study of Gym Tonic's Community Based Strength Training Intervention on Physical Function and Frailty Reversal, for Elderly Singaporeans.
Launched in April 2015 , Gym Tonic is the first of its kind cross-border exercise-as-medicine partnership between research institutions, business enterprises and service providers from Singapore and Finland. What sets Gym Tonic apart from other exercise programmes is its singular focus on strength training, necessary for frailty prevention and maintenance of functional independence for the elderly. This randomized-control trial is to validate the Gym Tonic programme and data as well measuring its effectiveness in improving physical functions and reversing frailty.
The RCT is conducted in 3 eldercare community centers. In each center, a group of elderly will be randomly sorted into 2 groups. An intervention group and a control group. The intervention group will go through 12 weeks of Gym Tonic progressive training programme. While the control group acts as a control. After the first 12 weeks, the intervention group will be going through another 12 weeks of Gym Tonic maintenance programme, while the control group will be going through the Gym Tonic progressive training programme. Measurements of physical functions, isometric strength and frailty will be conducted pre trial, post 12 weeks and post 24 weeks. ;
