Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study protocol, describe the innovative study intervention which will be performed in a green-blue space in Italy in order to investigate on the improvements in wellbeing following participation in the study. This will be significant because it will provide evidence on the effectiveness of the supervised physical activities carried out in green-blue space in improving health, quality of life, physical performance, anthropometric outcomes and physiological parameters in adults, indicating the reasonableness for public health authorities to developing such activities.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The aim of the "Parco del Mare" pilot study is to evaluate the feasibility and the effects of a moderate-intensity exercise program carried out in a green-blue space, on health outcomes such as quality of life and physical performance. Healthy adults with no contraindication to practice physical activity will be recruited and divided into two groups: the experimental group involved in the exercise sessions performed twice a week for 6-months, while the control group received no intervention. Validated tests and questionnaires will be used to detect health parameters at baseline (T0) and follow-up (T1). The investigators expected the intervention carried out in the Parco del Mare setting to be feasible and effective in improving health parameters, quality of life and physical performance in healthy adults.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Experimental group

Participants in the experimental group (EG) undergo the exercise program designed for the purpose of the study. The outdoor sessions will be carried out in groups (2 sessions per week, lasting 1 hour each one) and administered by trainers with a master's degree in Science and Technique of Preventive and Adapted Physical Activity (kinesiologists).

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Exercise program

Intervention Type OTHER

Each intervention session is divided into three different parts according to the specific aim such as warm-up (about 15 minutes) at the beginning, main exercises (about 30 minutes), and stretching and relaxation (about 15 minutes) at the end.

Control Group

The control group (CG) will be asked to abstain from structured exercise or training, limiting their physical effort to activities needed for daily life.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group
