LEAPTogether: Virtual Paired Exercise for Loneliness and Social Isolation

This study, called LEAPTogether, is testing a new way to help with loneliness and social isolation through virtual exercise. You would be paired with another person for exercise videos. There are two types of pairings: 1. **Intergenerational Virtual Paired Exercise:** You'd exercise with someone from a different age group (older or younger). 2. **Peer Virtual Paired Exercise:** You'd exercise with someone from your own age group. Participants will log on with their partner twice a week for 8 weeks. The study is looking at how well people stick to the 8-week virtual exercise program. To join, you need to be between 18-30 years old or 65 years or older, have a computer or tablet with video, and be able to read and write. The current recruitment status is unclear.

Study design
This is an interventional study planning to enroll 80 participants. It compares two types of virtual paired exercise programs.
What's involved
You would complete assessments at the start, 8 weeks, and 16 weeks, meet an Exercise Physiologist, be matched with a partner, and virtually exercise twice a week for 8 weeks. You would also attend a live group class once a month and complete an exit interview.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
You would be followed for 16 weeks after the start of the study.
