Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Experimental 1 - Exercise plus cognitive training
In addition to the exercise program, participants will be given a series of cognitive exercises aimed at improving prospective memory through the performance of certain oral tasks, administered by a member of the research team. All cognitive exercises will be adapted to the cognitive abilities of the participants

In addition to the exercise program, participants will be given a series of cognitive exercises aimed at improving prospective memory through the performance of certain oral tasks, administered by a member of the research team. All cognitive exercises will be adapted to the cognitive abilities of the participants.
Experimental 2 - Exercise plus cognitive stimulus
In addition to the exercise program, people randomised into this group will receive a short video lasting less than 10 minutes on their smartphone or tablet before the exercise session (or at home). At the end of the video, they will be asked to complete a 10-question questionnaire (also delivered via smartphone or tablet) with True or False answer options
Exercise plus cognitive stimulus at home
In addition to the exercise program, participants will receive a short video lasting less than 10 minutes on their smartphone or tablet before the exercise session (or at home). At the end of the video, they will be asked to complete a 10-question questionnaire (also delivered via smartphone or tablet) with True or False answer options.
Active comparator - Exercise only
The exercise program (equal for all the study groups with the exercise intervention) includes 75-minute training sessions twice a week, for a total of 24 training sessions over 12 weeks. Each training session will be divided into a warm-up, training phase and cool-down, and will include aerobic exercises, resistance training, balance exercises, mobility exercises and stretching.
EXERCISE TRAINING WITH OR WITHOUT MEDICATION
The exercise program includes 75-minute training sessions twice a week, for a total of 24 training sessions over 12 weeks. Each training session will be divided into a warm-up, training phase and cool-down, and will include aerobic exercises, resistance training, balance exercises, mobility exercises and stretching.
Control group
The subjects included in this group will not receive any specific treatment. They will receive advice on how to stay active at home and will undergo scheduled assessments.
No interventions assigned to this group
