Physical fitness
SECONDARY
Compared to baseline, aerobic fitness increased by 12.5 Watts (95% CI 6.76 to 18.25; p<0.001). This corresponds to a mean improvement of 11%. Also, at the end of the program participants needed 2.95sec (95% CI 2.48 to 3.43; p<0.001) less for the lower limb strength test (=increased strength), increased their flexibility by 3.45cm (95% CI -4.43 to -2.48; p<0.001), could stand on one leg for 1.94sec (95% CI 0.55 to 3.32; p=0.006) longer, and needed 1.27sec (95% CI -1.46 to -1.08; p<0.001) less for the 10m walking speed test. In summary, there was a mean improvement of 10-29% in the secondary physical fitness outcomes.
