Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Yoga Practice
Participants will be led through a beginner yoga course taught by a certified yoga instructor. Classes will meet twice a week for 75 minutes each for the duration of 12 weeks. Sessions will focus on yoga postures, breathing, and meditative practices and may utilize mats, blocks, belts, and blankets.
Yoga
12 weeks, total of 150 minutes of exercise per week.
Stretching and Toning
This 12 week, progressive stretching and toning course will aid participants in building whole body strength and flexibility by utilizing weights, chairs, mats, and various other exercise equipment. Sessions will meet three times a week for 50 minutes and will offer 'easy' and 'hard' modifications taught by an exercise leader.
Stretching and Toning
12 weeks, total of 150 minutes of exercise per week.
Aerobic Walking
Participants will partake in treadmill walking that encourages them to reach a pre-determined heart rate range. Sessions will be conducted three times a week for 50 minutes, and offer participants to self-select a speed and incline to meet their target heart rate zone.
Aerobic Walking
12 weeks, total of 150 minutes of exercise per week.
