EFFECT OF ADDING HOME-BASED MODERATE-INTENSITY EXERCISE ON METABOLIC FUNCTIONS IN OLDER ADULTS WITH NON-COMMUNICABLE DISEASES WHO REGULARLY PERFORM GYM-BASED MODERATE-INTENSITY EXERCISE.

Context: Physical activity is important for the management of metabolic functions; however, little is known whether performing home-based moderate-intensity exercise (MIE) obtains further improvement on metabolic functions in adults with non-communicable diseases (NCDs) who already perform regular gym-based MIE.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of adding home-based MIE on metabolic functions in older adults with NCDs who have regularly performed gym-based MIE.

Design: This was a single-center randomized controlled study.
