Mimic-game & Groove: A TeleXercise Intervention to Get Active & Get Healthy

The composite effect of reduced balance, cognition, gait abnormalities/gait disturbances, and physical activity in older adults leads to fear of falling and decreased participation in daily activities, resulting in reduced cardiovascular fitness and deconditioning. Although many conventional balance and strength training programs have been implemented for older adults, these adults do not receive adequate practice dosage to make significant improvements, most likely due to lack of adherence to therapy and/or inadequate incorporation of all domains of the ICF model (body functions and structures, activities and participation) and lack of targeting cognitive-motor interference (deterioration of motor and/or cognitive function when both tasks are performed together). The use of TeleXercise via Tele rehabilitation has been found to be relatively enjoyable for older adults due to increased motivation and adherence to therapy, which led to the added improvement of physical and cognitive functioning. The overall aim of this pilot is to develop and test the Mimic-Me \& Groove TeleXercise platform and then evaluate the compliance and efficacy of the TeleXercise intervention compared to control group receiving standard of care (education on conventional exercise and fall prevention program) for older adults as well as its effect on enhancing balance, gait, and cognition, and physical activity. Investigators also hope that the net effect of improvement in these domains of health outcomes will result in pre and post improvement in endurance and cardiovascular function and reduction of fall risk and improved quality of life of older adults. The study investigates the efficacy of a TeleXercise intervention in older adults by demonstrating its feasibility, compliance rate and also determine the efficacy of the Mimic-Me \& Groove TeleXercise in improving health outcomes such as motor and cognitive functions, thereby reducing cognitive-motor interference. The study will also aim to
