Group-based exercise combined with dual-task training improves gait but not vascular health in active older adults without dementia

Highlights • Exercise + dual-task (DT) training (vs. exercise) can improve gait in older adults. • Longer duration interventions are necessary for improvements in mobility. • Exercise + DT training (vs. exercise) does not appear to benefit vascular health. • These findings support the use of square-...

Zusammenfassung:	Highlights • Exercise + dual-task (DT) training (vs. exercise) can improve gait in older adults. • Longer duration interventions are necessary for improvements in mobility. • Exercise + DT training (vs. exercise) does not appear to benefit vascular health. • These findings support the use of square-stepping exercise to improve mobility.
