Brief Summary:
The goal of this interventional study was to test the high-intensity interval training called Aphasia Physical Exercise (APEX) in healthy older adults. The main questions it aimed to answer were:
1. what is the safety and feasibility of APEX?
2. what are APEX's acute physiological effects?
3. what is APEX's effects on functional fitness?
4. what is APEX's effects on cognition?
Participants underwent:
* Baseline testing session (#1) with cognitive measures only (a week before the Pre-exercise session);
* Pre-exercise session (#2) with maximum oxygen consumption and heart rate assessment, functional fitness and cognitive measures (3-7 days before the start of the exercise program);
* APEX program, two APEX classes per week for four weeks (eight classes in total);
* Post-exercise session (#3), functional fitness and cognitive measures, (0-2 days after the end of the exercise program).
