Study Summary
This randomized controlled trial (RCT) will investigate the effects of a 6-month, individualized, moderate-intensity cycling intervention on cognition and hippocampal volume in AD with three aims: * Determine the immediate effect of the cycling intervention on cognition in AD. * Examine if the cycling intervention slows cognitive decline in AD from baseline to 12 months. * Assess the effect of aerobic exercise on hippocampal volume in AD over 12 months using MRI. The investigators will randomize 90 participants to the 6-month cycling or stretching/range of motion exercise (20-50-minute, 3 times a week). Participants will then be followed for another 6 months. Cognition will be assessed at baseline, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months and hippocampal volume will be measured using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at baseline, 6, and 12 months.
Interventions
- BEHAVIORAL Cycling exercise
- BEHAVIORAL Range of motion/stretching exercise
