Summary

The Strong People Strength Training study aims to assess whether a community-based progressive strength training program can improve risk factors for diabetes and heart disease in older rural adults.

Detailed description

This study aims to evaluate the effects of a twice weekly, 12-week progressive strength training program, Strong People Strength Training, on cardiometabolic risk factors in a pragmatic, community-based randomized intervention trial among rural men and women 50 and older. We hypothesize that individuals randomized to the intervention group will demonstrate statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvements in cardiometabolic risk factors as well as physical function, quality of life, and physical activity compared to those randomized to the delayed intervention control group.
