Effects of feedback-based balance and core resistance training vs. Pilates training on cognitive functions in older women with mild cognitive impairment: A pilot randomized- controlled trial
Background: There is limited research about beneficial effects of physical activity in older adults suffering from mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Aim: The aim of the study was to provide preliminary evidence on the effects of two types of non-aerobic training on cognitive functions in older women suffering from MCI. Methods: Twenty-eight participants aged 66 to 78 years with MCI were randomly assigned to a combined balance and core resistance training group (n =14) or to a Pilates group (n = 14). Results: Following completion of the 8-week exercise programme, both groups showed significant improvements in global and specific cognitive domains. Conclusion: Findings suggest that non-aerobic training should be further explored as a beneficial intervention for older adults suffering from MCI.
