Objectives

Narrative objectives1

To compare functional fitness, body composition, and psychosocial outcomes over a 12-week period between older adults participating in a structured interval walking training program (WalkPacer Pro application, 1-minute and 3-minute alternating fast and slow walking cycles) and a non-randomized control group receiving no walking intervention.
