✅   Improving and preserving cardiorespiratory fitness, muscle strength and adiposity through a complex lifestyle intervention in community-dwelling older adults with elevated cardiometabolic risk: study protocol for the RESTART randomised controlled trial

Health

Introduction As the global population ages, the incidence of cardiometabolic diseases and associated healthcare costs rise. There is a critical need for preventive interventions enabling long-lasting treatment effects to address the decline in physical performance and metabolic health among older adults. The RESTART (RE-inventing Strategies for healthy Ageing: Recommendations and Tools) randomised controlled trial (RCT) aims to evaluate whether a complex lifestyle intervention can improve and maintain cardiorespiratory fitness, muscle strength and body composition among older adults with elevated cardiometabolic risk. Methods and analysis This is the study protocol for the RESTART trial, a two-arm, open-label, parallel-group RCT conducted in Tromsø, Norway, targeting adults aged 60–75 with obesity, a sedentary lifestyle and high cardiovascular risk.
