Role of Aging and Individual Variation in Exercise Training Responsiveness

The Role of Aging and Individual Variation in Exercise Training Responsiveness

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 13 Jul 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The primary purpose of this study is to assess the effects of aging on markers of physical reserve and exercise-induced adaptations in resilience in older adults who completed a structured exercise program within the last 15 years (Parent trial: STRRIDE-PD; NCT00962962). This feasibility pilot study will enroll up to 26 participants to complete a 6-month aerobic exercise intervention.

Other illness

  • Insulin-dependent diabetes

  • Current, actively treated malignancy other than dermatologic conditions
  • Absolute contraindications to exercise testing: ongoing unstable angina; uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia with hemodynamic compromise; active endocarditis; symptomatic severe aortic stenosis; decompensated heart failure; acute pulmonary embolism, pulmonary infarction, or deep vein thrombosis; acute myocarditis or pericarditis; acute aortic dissection; physical disability that precludes safe and adequate testing
  • Relative contraindications to exercise testing: known obstructive left main coronary artery stenosis; moderate to severe aortic stenosis with uncertain relation to symptoms; tachyarrhythmias with uncontrolled ventricular rates; acquired advanced or complete heart block; hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy with severe resting gradient; recent stroke or transient ischemic attack; mental impairment with limited ability to cooperate; uncorrected medical conditions, such as hypertension, significant anemia, important electrolyte imbalance, and hyperthyroidism
  • Modified testing contraindications: acute myocardial infarction (MI) within six months; resting hypertension with systolic or diastolic blood pressures \>160/90 mmHg

Other
