Change in muscle protein levels, such as PGC-1α (primary outcome) in muscle samples of moderate-to-low functioning older adults from baseline to post-test (90 days). Arbitrary units are used for measurement as it is common for protein expression data since we do not measure absolute content of a specific protein within a sample.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to 90 Days

Change in levels of spontaneous physical activity from baseline to post-test (90 days). Measured using an accelerometer which is a wearable device that captures acceleration (counts) in real time, in multiple planes. Can be used to measure energy expenditure or stationary activity levels.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to 90 Days

Change in muscle protein levels, such as AMPK in muscle samples of moderate-to-low functioning older adults from baseline to post-test (90 days). Arbitrary units are used for measurement as it is common for protein expression data since we do not measure absolute content of a specific protein within a sample.
