Study Summary

This research study will aim to evaluate BIG for LIFE as a group exercise program, and determine whether three time a week exercise sessions with heart rate monitoring is beneficial to maintain or improve physical function, cognitive function, and quality of life over a period of 8 weeks (pre/post testing and 24 visits). The specific objective of this study is to investigate the impact of this exercise group (BIG for LIFE) on motor functions (i.e. balance, gait, strength, balance confidence) and quality of life functions (sleep, depression, activities of daily living) The investigators will test the following hypotheses: 1. that participation in this community-based exercise group will improve mobility level and balance confidence 2. that participation in this group will increase performance of activities of daily living as measured by self-assessment 3. that participation in this group will increase quality of life, cognition, sleep, or depression measures 4. that providing real time heart rate feedback in this group setting will increase the amount of time spent exercising in the target heart rate zone

Primary Outcome

The PDQ-39 is a 39 item self-report questionnaire which assesses Parkinson's disease specific health related quality over the last month across 8 quality of life dimensions (activities of daily living, attention and working memory, cognition, communication, depression, functional mobility, quality of life, social relationships, social support). Items are answered on a 5 point ordinal scale (0=never, 1=occasionally, 2=sometimes, 3=often, 4=always) Lower scores reflect better quality of life. The
