Summary

The objective of this clinical trial is to assess the feasibility of applying different gamified exercises doses in older adults. It will also learn from possible adverse effects of the intervention. The main questions this clinical trial aims to answer are: * Are there any differences between heart rate, perceived exertion and enjoyment between groups? * Are there any adverse effects? What is the magnitude of these adverse effects? * Are there any correlations between gamification time and the occurrence of adverse effects?

Detailed description

A randomised clinical trial will be conducted in which the use of exercise doses between 10 and 30 will be tested. Participants will be recruited from Nueva Esperanza nursing home, Fuensalida, Toledo. The study will be conducted according to the CONSORT statement for clinical, crossover and parallel trials. The study will have a total of two experimental groups, with different intervention times, between 10 and 30 minutes, respectively, using a mobile application.
