NCT06682741

Brief Summary

The goal of the project is to identify the most effective exercise modalities in terms of neuroprotective effects and FP improvement. Hypothesis: Dancing will increase BDNF, GDNF and CLU levels to a greater extent than traditional forms of AF, resulting in significantly greater improvements in FP in subjects aged ≥ 60 years. The study will involve 60 women aged ≥ 60 years, randomly and equitably assigned to training groups (i.e., resistance training using body weight, dance) and a control group (i.e., a group of physically inactive women). Methodology: Participants: 60 women aged ≥ 60 randomly and equally assigned to training groups (Dance and Resistance training) and a control group (i.e., physically inactive women) Scientists will compare the impact of different forms of physical activity on cognitive functions
