Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Exercise: progressive supervised aerobic (e.g. walking and cycling) and resistance exercises (e.g. upper and lower body resistance based exercise using weight machines) twice weekly (60 minute sessions) for 6 months. The training will be supplemented with a printed booklet containing general information about physical activity.

Comparator / control treatment
Control: 6 month usual care group. All participants in this group will be provided with a printed booklet with general information about physical activity.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 240569 0
Aerobic capacity will be measured by subjects completing a timed 400 meters corridor walking test, which consisted of 10 laps out and back over a 20-meter course, as fast as they can at a pace they can maintain over the distance. The 400 meters walk has been shown to be a valid test to estimate aerobic capacity and walking endurance in older adults.
Timepoint [1] 240569 0
Baseline, end of intervention post-test (6 months), and at 6 months after the end of the study.
Primary outcome [2] 240629 0
Blood metabolic biomarkers: insulin, lipid profile, glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin levels will be measured commercially by accredited Australian National Association of Testing Authorities (NATA) and International Accreditation New Zealand (IANZ) laboratories.
Timepoint [2] 240629 0
Baseline, end of intervention post-test (6 months), and at 6 months after the end of the study.
Primary outcome [3] 240630 0
Abdominal obesity: central adiposity will be assessed by waist circumference and hip circumference will also be determined using anthropometric measures.
Timepoint [3] 240630 0
Baseline, end of intervention post-test (6 months), and at 6 months after the end of the study.
Secondary outcome [1] 257191 0
Body mass index (BMI) will be calculated using the measurements of height and weight.

Additionally body composition (lean and fat mass) derived from Dual energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) whole body scan will be measured for the participants in the Western Australia (Perth) cohort.
Timepoint [1] 257191 0
Baseline, end of intervention post-test (6 months), and at 6 months after the end of the study.
Secondary outcome [2] 257192 0
Balance and risk of falling will be determined using the activities-specific balance scale.

Additionally, participants from Western Australia (Perth) cohort will be tested on the Neurocom Smart Balancemaster system to measure static and dynamic balance.
Timepoint [2] 257192 0
Baseline, end of intervention post-test (6 months), and at 6 months after the end of the study.
Secondary outcome [3] 257263 0
Lower body physical function will be tested using a repeated chair rise test.

Additionally, the participants in the Western Australia (Perth) cohort will be tested for maximum muscle strength using the one repitition maximum (1-RM) method. 1-RM will be assessed for leg-press, chest press. seated row and leg extension.
Timepoint [3] 257263 0
Baseline, end of intervention post-test (6 months), and at 6 months after the end of the study.
Secondary outcome [4] 257264 0
Quality of life and psychological distress will be assessed using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Core Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30), European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer, Prostate Specific Module (EORTC QLQ-PR25), Medical Outcomes Study Short-Form 36 (SF-36v2), and The Brief Symptom Inventory-18 (BSI-18).
Timepoint [4] 257264 0
Baseline, end of intervention post-test (6 months), and at 6 months after the end of the study.
