Study Summary

This study will analyze the influence of acute bout exercise intensities (continuous moderate and HIIT) on middle cerebral artery velocity (MCAv) to identify which intensity elicits the greatest increase in CBF in older adults (65+ yrs). Additionally, this study will help verify positive correlations between MCAv and cognitive function. These findings are important in determining the optimal exercise prescription for increased resilience against the age-related cognitive degradation.

Primary Outcome

Blood flow velocity measured in the Middle Cerebral Artery via Transcranial Doppler probe secured to the right temporal window.

Interventions

  • OTHER Control
  • OTHER Acute bout of Continuous Moderate Intensity Exercise
  • OTHER Acute bout of High Intensity Interval Training
