Résumé succinct
Online exercise has increased in popularity during the pandemic, but there is no evidence of its feasibility and benefits in older people and the influence of motivational strategies. The main aims of this project are: i) To analyze the influence of applying or not motivational strategies during different physical exercise interventions (face-to-face and online) on the effect on mental health, physical health and adherence, according to sex/gender; ii) To analyze and compare the cost-effectiveness and efficacy of face-to-face and online exercise interventions on mental health, physical health and adherence, according to sex/gender. Participants will be 104 community-dwelling older adults (60-75 years) who will be randomized assigned to control, supervised face to face, supervised face to face plus motivation, synchronous online supervised exercise or synchronous online supervised exercise groups.

The control group will carry out the usual activities they have been doing, and the intervention groups will participate for 24 weeks in multicomponent exercise intervention. Study assessments will be made before starting the intervention, at the end and after 24 weeks of follow-up. Primary variables will be changes in mental and physical health, assessed by the Trail Making Test, the Yesavage Geriatric Depression Scale, and lower extremity power measured by the sit to stand test. Secondary outcomes will include other parameters of mental and physical health, blood markers, physical activity, and cost-effectiveness analysis. The dropout rate, the attendance at the sessions, the injuries and other adverse events suffered by the participants, and technical incidences produced in the online modality will also be recorded.

The results of this project will provide insight into the mental and physical health effects and feasibility of face-to-face and synchronous online supervised physical exercise interventions, and identify older adults' perceptions of the safety, barriers and facilitators of these interventions for future application and transfer to community settings.

Description détaillée
Scientific evidence has demonstrated the effects of multicomponent physical exercise on the mental and physical health of community-dwelling older people. Despite this, the interest of some older people in exercise is low and even a low percentage of older people practice it with sufficient frequency and intensity to obtain benefits in their mental and physical health. Recent studies have demonstrated the importance of using motivational strategies to generate adherence to exercise, but there are still no studies with community-dwelling older adults. Furthermore, the Covid-19 pandemic has shown that face-to-face physical exercise is not always possible, so it is necessary to have alternatives in case situations of social isolation and mobility restrictions return. It is also important to note that many older people have difficulty traveling to a sports center or living in rural environments, which makes it difficult to practice exercise regularly. Online exercise has increased in popularity during the pandemic, but there is no evidence of its feasibility and benefits in older people.

The specific aims of this study are:

  1. To analyze the influence of applying or not motivational strategies during supervised face-to-face and synchronous online physical exercise interventions on the effect on mental health, physical health and adherence, according to sex/gender in the community setting.
  2. To analyze and compare the cost-effectiveness and efficacy of supervised face-to-face and synchronous online exercise interventions vs usual lifestyle on mental health, physical health and adherence, according to sex/gender in the community setting, in short and long term (follow up).
  3. To design and evaluate the feasibility of supervised face-to-face and synchronous online exercise interventions and to identify older adults' perceptions of safety, barriers and facilitators of supervised face-to-face and synchronous online physical exercise interventions for future application and transfer to the community setting.
  4. To create audio-visual resources that explain how to implement safe face-to-face and synchronous online supervised physical exercise interventions in older men and women that promote adherence, based on scientific evidence, in the community setting.

Participants (N=104 community-dwelling older adults aged 60-75 years) will be randomized assigned to: 1) control, 2)supervised face to face, 3) supervised face to face plus motivation, 4) synchronous online supervised exercise or 5) synchronous online supervised exercise groups.

The control group will carry out the usual activities they have been doing, and the intervention groups will participate for 24 weeks in 3 sessions/week of multicomponent exercise intervention, being performed from home (online groups) or at a sport center, according to the assigned group. Each session will last 60 minutes and will include 10 warm-up and joint mobility exercises, 1 balance exercise, 7 strength exercises, 2 aerobic exercises, and 6 flexibility exercises.

Study assessments will be made before starting the intervention, at the end and after 24 weeks of follow-up. Primary variables will be changes in mental and physical health, assessed by the Trail Making Test, the Yesavage Geriatric Depression Scale, and lower extremity power measured by the sit-to-stand test. Secondary outcomes will include other parameters of mental and physical health, blood markers, physical activity, and cost-effectiveness analysis. We will also record the dropout rate, the attendance at the sessions, the injuries and other adverse events suffered by the participants, and technical incidences produced in the online modality.

Baseline (week 0), post-intervention (week 25), and follow-up (week 48).
Motivators and barriers to exercise
Motivators and barriers to exercise will be measured using the Exercise Benefits/Barriers Scale. It is a 43-item instrument with a four-response Likert-type scale; Twenty-nine items are related to the benefits, while the remaining 14 are barriers. - The total score of the instrument can range from 43 to 172 points, with higher scores indicating a more positive perception of exercise.
Baseline (week 0), post-intervention (week 25), and follow-up (week 48).
Motivation to exercise according to self-determination theory
The Behavioral Regulation during Exercise Questionnaire (BREQ-3) comprises 23 items (4 for intrinsic regulation, 4 for integrated regulation, 3 for identified regulation, 4 for introjected regulation, 4 for external regulation and 4 for amotivation) that measure the stages of the self-determination theory with respect to motivation to exercise. Participants will answer each item on a 5-point scale ranging from 0 (not true for me) to 4 (very true for me). Higher scores on identified regulation, integrated regulation and intrinsic motivation are generally considered indicative of a more self-determined and healthy motivation towards exercise. On the other hand, higher scores on amotivation, external regulation and introjected regulation generally indicate less self-determined motivation.
Baseline (week 0), post-intervention (week 25), and follow-up (week 48)
Basic Psychological Needs in Exercise
The Basic Psychological Needs in Exercise Scale (BPNES) is composed of 12 items assessing the satisfaction of the three basic psychological needs in physical exercise contexts: competence, autonomy and relationship with others. A 5-point likert scale is used: (1) Do not agree at all, (2) Somewhat agree, (3) Somewhat agree, (4) Strongly agree, and (5) Strongly agree.using : (1) I don't agree at all, (2) I agree a little bit, (3) I somewhat agree, (4) I agree a lot, and (5) I completely agree. For each need, a minimum score of 4 points and a maximum of 20 points can be obtained. The score for the total questionnaire would be a minimum of 12 points and a maximum of 60 points. A higher score reflects a better satisfaction of basic psychological needs.
Baseline (week 0), Post-intervention (week 25) and follow-up (week 48)
Satisfaction with Life
The Satisfaction with Life Scale is a 5-item instrument with a Likert-type scale ranging from 1 to 5 points, and measures overall subjective happiness through statements in which participants rate themselves. The higher the score, the higher the satisfaction with life.
Baseline (week 0), post-intervention (week 25), and follow-up (week 48)
Sociodemographic characteristics questionnaire
Age, sex, marital status, educational level, socioeconomic status, employment status, self-rated health, family history of Alzheimer, pathologies diagnosed, number of falls during the previous year, consumption of medicines, and tobacco and alcohol consumption will be determined by this questionnaire
Baseline (week 0), post-intervention (week 25), and follow-up (week 48)
Cost-Effectiveness Analysis
A cost-effectiveness analysis will be performed to assess the expenses associated with each intervention group, utilizing the EQ-5D questionnaire to evaluate changes in health states.The analysis will focus on the following key metrics, the Quality-Adjusted Life-Year (QALY) and the Incremental Cost-Effectiveness Ratio (ICER). The Cost-Utility analysis examines an intervention's cost-effectiveness by considering expenses and the impact on patients' quality of life. QALYs provide a comprehensive measure of both the quantity and quality of life, calculated by multiplying the utility weights assigned to each health state by the time spent in that state. The cost per QALY gained is determined by dividing the total intervention costs by the total QALYs gained. The ICER compares the cost-effectiveness of two interventions by evaluating the difference in costs and effects (QALYs gained). A positive ICER indicates that Intervention A is more expensive and less effective than Intervention B
Through intervention completion (24 weeks)
Adherence to physical training program
Adherence to physical training program will be recorded by the trainers. It will be calculated as a percentage (\[sessions completed/total sessions expected\] x 100), where 0 % indicates total non-adherence and 100 % indicates full adherence to the exercise intervention.
Through intervention completion (week 24)
Exercise during follow-up period
During the 24-week follow-up, the investigators will assess through an ad-hoc self-reported questionnaire whether or not participants exercised during the follow up period (24 weeks), the exercise modality performed, if the exercise was supervised center-based and/or unsupervised/supervised home-based, the number of weekly exercise sessions performed, the average time and the subjective intensity perceived (light, moderate or vigorous).
Follow-up (week 48)
Falls and adverse events
Participants in the supervised synchronous online exercise and control groups will record in a diary their falls and adverse events during and outside exercise sessions. In the supervised face to face groups, supervisors will register the incidence of falls during exercise sessions an participants will register them outside the exercise sessions using the diary.
Through intervention completion (24 weeks)
