Visual Stimulus-Based Cognitive-Motor Agility Exercise in Older Adults

This randomized controlled trial examined the effects of adding a brief visual stimulus-based cognitive-motor agility exercise component to a multicomponent exercise program in community-dwelling older adults. Participants were randomized to either an experimental group or an active control group. Both groups participated in supervised multicomponent exercise sessions twice weekly for 8 weeks. Each session lasted 45 minutes. During the final 10 minutes of each session, the experimental group performed the visual stimulus-based cognitive-motor agility exercises, whereas the active control group performed time-matched low-intensity activities. The primary outcome was global cognitive performance assessed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment. Secondary outcomes included hand and foot visual-motor response time, visual working memory, and functional performance.
