Placebo-jämförare: Lätt fysisk träning
Promenader i vanligt tempo, styrketräning, stretchövningar och balansträning.
|
One hour each session, two sessions each week, for 6 months.
Each session will be structured into three 15-minute segments (including warm-up activities/balance exercise/walking, upper and lower body strength exercise/walking, and stretching exercise/balance exercise/walking, respectively), each ending with a short break to record the Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE), followed by a 5-minute break time or cool-down/wrap-up session.
The session will be taught by a certified exercise physiologist and a research assistant.

Aktiv komparator: Tai Chi
Tai Chi promenader och Yang-stil Tai Chi 8 former.
|
One hour each session, two sessions each week, for 6 months.
Each session will be structured into three 15-minute segments (including warm-up activities/balance exercise/breathing exercise, Tai Chi walking drills, and Tai Chi 8-form, respectively), each ending with a short break to record the RPE, and followed by a 5-minute break or cool-down/wrap-up session.
The session will be taught by an experienced Tai Chi instructor and a research assistant.

Single-task stride time
Tidsram: 6 months
|
Gait will be assessed using a sensored gait mat that has embedded pressure sensors distributed throughout the mat.
The mat measures location and timing of individual steps, which then can be used to calculate stride time.
