The old sedate cohort will be compared to young, sedate subjects also performing aerobic interval training and old master athletes without intervention.', 'detailedDescription': 'Aging is associated with a reduced diastolic and systolic function of the heart. Earlier studies have shown that physical exercise can improve both systolic and diastolic function. However the impact on age-related cardiac function is to some extent conflicting. The use of different training intensities will impact on the cardiac result. We have in earlier studies shown aerobic interval training at 90 % of maximal heart rate (4x4 minutes) to have more impact on cardiac function, endothelial function and maximal oxygen uptake compared to moderate intensity.\n\nTo our knowledge the effect of aerobic interval training on cardiac function has not been studied in an old, sedate group before.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '70 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* over 70 years, healthy\n* not exercising more than twice per week\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* chronic illness\n* chronic use of any medication\n* regular smoking\n* metabolic or cardiovascular diseases'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT00804518', 'briefTitle': 'Effect of Exercise on Heart Function in Healthy Elderly People', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Norwegian University of Science and Technology'}, 'officialTitle': 'Aerobic Interval Training Reduces and Compensates Age Related Decline in Cardiac Function', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '4.2008.2177'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Exercise intervention', 'interventionNames': ['Other: Aerobic interval training']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Aerobic interval training', 'type': 'OTHER', 'description': 'High intensity aerobic interval training consists of 10 minutes warm up at \\~60% of maximal heart rate, 4x4 minutes intervals at 90-95 % of maximal heart rate corresponding to 85-90% of VO2max) walking/running uphill on a treadmill, with three minutes active pause between the exercise bouts at 60-70% maximal heart rate.
