The main aim of the project is to examine the effect of as well as of the three-month, timely specific training intervention on the functionality of circadian organization in elderly volunteers. The additive aim is to examine the effect of lifelong endurance physical activity, along with the experimental training intervention on the body composition, bone density, and selected hormonal, biochemical, histological and molecular indicators of metabolic health.
Partial aims are as follows:n to explore the effect of morning and afternoon training on the most significant parameters, identified by the previous cross-sectional study, in sedentary elderly. Furthermore, to clarify adaptation mechanisms of experimental training protocol on selected parameters, that may explain possible differences in mechanisms of active and passive aging.
