Poor physical fitness is associated with impaired memory, executive function, and depression in institutionalized older adults: a cross-sectional study

Renato S. Monteiro-Junior et al.

Summary: There is an association between physical fitness and cognitive function and depressive symptoms among older adults in long-term care facilities. Low levels of strength and aerobic fitness increase the risk of impaired semantic fluency and executive function, possibly indicating an increased risk of developing dementia.

Role for Physical Fitness in the Association between Age and Cognitive Function in Older Adults: A Mediation Analysis of the SABE Colombia Study

Miguel Angel Perez-Sousa et al.

Summary: This study investigated the relationship between physical fitness and cognitive status, finding that older adults with lower handgrip strength and slower gait speed were more likely to have cognitive impairments. Additionally, age was negatively associated with cognitive function. The study also revealed that gait speed and handgrip strength were independent mediators of the detrimental effects of aging on cognitive function.

The effect of exercise on quality of life and activities of daily life in frail older adults: A systematic review of randomised control trials

Evan Campbell et al.

Summary: The systematic review examined the effects of exercise on quality of life and activities of daily living in frail older adults, finding positive effects in 10 out of 15 studies. Improvement in QoL and ADLs was only seen in studies reporting improved physical outcomes, indicating the interconnected nature of frailty and quality of life.

Benefits of Resistance Training in Early and Late Stages of Frailty and Sarcopenia: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Studies

Karolina Talar et al.

Summary: This systematic review and meta-analysis examined the effects of resistance training on sarcopenia and frailty in older adults, finding significant improvements in handgrip strength, lower-limb strength, agility, gait speed, postural stability, functional performance, fat mass, and muscle mass. Resistance training was found to be an effective preventive strategy to delay and attenuate the negative effects of sarcopenia and frailty at both early and late stages.

Low-volume cycling training improves body composition and functionality in older people with multimorbidity: a randomized controlled trial

Eduardo Carballeira et al.

Summary: Regular physical exercise is proven to prevent and reverse noncommunicable diseases and reduce mortality rates. Older adults often do not exercise enough, and a 6-week intervention showed significant improvements in body composition, hemodynamic, and functionality changes for individuals aged 65 and older with multimorbidity.
