Control
NO INTERVENTIONParticipants assigned to the control group will receive usual care and will not undergo any specific intervention related to individualized multicomponent exerceise. They will continue doing their daily routine.
Exercise
EXPERIMENTALParticipants in this group will take part in a individualized multicomponent physical training program including exercises targeting strength, balance, and aerobic capacity, adapted to centenarians and conducted following established safety guidelines.
Interventions
Participants in the intervention group will take part in an individualized multicomponent physical training program including exercises targeting strength, balance, and aerobic capacity, adapted to older adults and conducted following established safety guidelines.
