Clinical Trial Summary

Cognitive impairment or dementia is their last degree in one of the main concerns at a social level in these ages. To this day, there are different pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapies that can help prevent deterioration, as in this case, physical exercise.

In the existing scientific literature, you can find a lot of information about the effect of aerobic exercise on cognition, but little is known about the effect of force exercise and its effect on general cognition and executive functions.

Therefore, in this research the investigators will investigate the effect of strength training in people over 60 with a diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment in executive functions. For this, a controlled and randomized clinical trial will be developed in the city of Seville


Clinical Trial Description

The training program will last 20 weeks and a frequency of 3 times / week.

During the week 0 the initial evaluation will be developed. Between weeks 1-20, the training program will be addressed. In week 21, all the changes made in all the measured variables will be evaluated.

Finally, in week 33 the variables will be measured again to see if the possible improvements given in the training program last over time.

The experimental group will perform a planned and individualized training with guided machines and training loads will be adjusted at the beginning of each week.

The control group will perform breathing and relaxation exercises to avoid a sample death.

After the intervention, there will be a follow-up phase for 3 months. ;
