Summary
This pilot study will evaluate whether a short, self-regulated interval exercise program is practical and safe for adults aged 60 and older. The program consists of short periods of running or walking in place, with rest periods between exercises, and allows participants to adjust the intensity to their individual abilities. The findings will help determine whether this type of exercise program is suitable for further research in larger studies.
