Seniors COvid-19 Pandemic and Exercise (SCOPE) study is seeking adults aged 65 years and older for a 12-week program to increase your levels of physical activity while at home.
Our goal is to assess whether exercising with other older adults as part of a socially connected (but physically distanced) exercise program, or a personal exercise program, will significantly improve the well-being and health of older adults (aged 65 years or older) currently living in Canada during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The trial is being conducted by Dr. Mark Beauchamp (director of the Psychology of Exercise, Health, and Physical Activity Lab at the University of British Columbia) and colleagues. The study is funded by a bridge grant from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research.
