Registry summary

Aging-related functional declines are thought to be caused by hallmark biological processes that ultimately manifest in physical, mental, and metabolic impairments that compromise healthspan and quality of life. Exercise is a multipotent treatment with promise to mitigate most aging hallmarks, but there is substantial variability in exercisƒe responsiveness. Combining endurance and resistance training in alignment with public health guidelines will be used to better understand variable exercise responsiveness in older adults with the ultimate goal of improving each older adult's capacity to attain the many health benefits of exercise.
