Study Summary

This trial tests participants' physical and mental skills before and after a 30 minute training program. MRI scans are used to measure brain activation, connectivity, and behavior.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for physically active individuals who haven't had recent musculoskeletal surgeries, fractures, or injuries. It's not suitable for those pregnant, with claustrophobia, metal implants that can't be removed, cognitive impairments, neurological issues affecting mobility or on CNS-affecting meds.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests a Motor-Cognitive Training Program combining physical exercises (like agility and plyometrics) with mental tasks (such as decision-making). Participants undergo brain scans before and after the 30-minute program to assess changes in brain function and behavior.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves exercise and cognitive tasks rather than medication, typical drug side effects aren't expected. However, participants may experience fatigue or muscle soreness from the physical activities involved.

Answered by AI

What positive outcomes are expected from the completion of this medical study?

"This two-hour trial intends to evaluate changes in functional connectivity as its primary outcome. Secondary objectives include the Defense Veterans Pain Rating Scale (which ranges from 0 - 10, with 0 being no pain or interference and 10 representing maximum impairment), the Modified Disablement In Physically Active Scale (which runs from 0 - 4, where 0 is indicative of no issues and 4 denotes severe disability) and the NASA Physical Activity Survey (where scores range between 0 -10; a score of zero represents complete sedentary activity whereas ten reflects an extremely active lifestyle)."
