NCT01931124

Brief Summary

Aim of the study is to investigate the effect of different types of training (high intensity and moderate training) on maximal oxygen uptake and activity levels in an elderly Norwegian population after one year training intervention. Baseline data include the activity levels assessed through self reported means as well as objectively measured activity data using activity monitors.
