In terms of cognitive health, certain studies have
observed the effects of physical training programs;
however, further studies are required to explore
specific PA factors that improve cognitive function in
older adults [11]. To date, physical training has been
specifically shown to improve certain aspects of
cognitive function in this population [18-20] and to
prevent the emergence of dementia [13, 21-25]. Two
types of physical training have been extensively
studied: aerobic and resistance exercise training.
