Sponsor's own description
The study is designed to develop and evaluate a physical activity promotion program among elderly African Americans with a long-term goal of reducing risk of Alzheimer's disease. The motivation for this study is that previous exercise interventions have improved cognitive function in older adults with and without cognitive impairments, but these studies were largely conducted without substantial African American representation. Due to genetic and environmental differences between African American and other populations, it is unclear whether positive findings from previous interventions will translate to African American individuals. Investigators hypothesize that a community-based physical activity intervention will a) be tailored to African American adults, b) increase daily amounts of physical activity, and c) improve cognitive function in sedentary older African American adults.
