Aerobic Exercise Indoors
Each session will consist of 10 min of warm-up, 40 min of aerobic exercise, and 10 min of cool-down. Aerobic exercise will be progressive and of moderate intensity. During training, each participant will wear a heart rate monitor and will be asked to work initially at approximately 45% of his/her target heart rate (i.e., heart rate reserve (HRR)) and gradually progress to reach the target of 70% of HRR over the 12-week study period. Participants will also subjectively monitor workout intensity using the 20-point Borg's Rating of Perceived Exertion. Participants will walk or jog on treadmills or cycle on stationary bikes in the Exercise Prescription Suite of the Centre for Hip Health and Mobility.
Aerobic Exercise Outdoors
Each session will consist of 10 min of warm-up, 40 min of aerobic exercise, and 10 min of cool-down. Aerobic exercise will be progressive and of moderate intensity. During training, each participant will wear a heart rate monitor and will be asked to work initially at approximately 45% of his/her target heart rate (i.e., heart rate reserve (HRR)) and gradually progress to reach the target of 70% of HRR over the 12-week study period. Participants will also subjectively monitor workout intensity using the 20-point Borg's Rating of Perceived Exertion. Participants will walk or jog pre-determined routes in trails of an urban forest (Pacific Spirit Park)
