Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Individuals who meet all of the following criteria will be eligible for inclusion in this study: 1.Residing in Mitaka City, Tokyo. 2.Aged between 75 and 89 years at the time of obtaining consent, regardless of gender. 3.Capable of independently managing basic daily activities. 4.Providing written informed consent to participate in the study of their own free will. 5.Having no physical limitations that would prevent engagement in at least 150 minutes per week of moderate-intensity physical activity. 5.Regularly using a smartphone, or, if provided with a smartphone, demonstrating both the willingness and ability to use it regularly during the study period.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Individuals meeting any of the following conditions will be excluded from this study: 1.Those who, at the time of consent, habitually engage in physical activity of moderate intensity for 150 minutes or more per week. 2.Those who have no intention of incorporating exercise into their routine or lack an environment conducive to integrating exercise into their daily lives. 3.Those for whom MRI examination is deemed inappropriate. Specifically, individuals with cardiac pacemakers, neurostimulators, magnetically adjustable artificial eyes, cochlear implants, inferior vena cava filters, shunt tubes (for hydrocephalus), or implanted devices such as stents, plates, bolts, implants, or dental bridges, as well as those with tattoos, will be considered unsuitable for MRI examination. However, MRI may be conducted if a physician determines that the presence of a stent or similar device does not pose a contraindication. 4.Those with any of the following medical conditions or disabilities, for whom exercise is deemed unsuitable by a medical institution: a) Severe cardiovascular disorders such as myocardial infarction, severe hypertension, or diabetes. b) Respiratory diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). c) Orthopedic issues such as bone or joint disorders. d) Individuals undergoing dialysis therapy. e) Other conditions or disabilities that may impair the ability to participate in the study's exercise program. 5.Those previously diagnosed with arrhythmias (e.g., tachyarrhythmia, bradyarrhythmia, atrial fibrillation) and deemed unfit for exercise by a medical institution. 6.Any other individuals whom the principal investigator determines to be unsuitable for participation in the study.
