BEHAVIORAL - Exercise
BEHAVIORAL - Cognitive
BEHAVIORAL - Active control

Experimental: Exercise and cognitive training - This intervention includes a combination of high-intensity exercise (10min/day) and computerized cognitive training (20min/day). The software for the latter has been developed by our group, and includes 8 mini-games targeting different cognitive abilities. Both are developed for the MovinCog intervention. The intervention is personalized, based on individual performance.

Experimental: Exercise - High-intensity training regimen, 10min/day. Developed for the MovinCog intervention.

Experimental: Cognitive training - Computerized cognitive training, 20min/day. Developed for the MovinCog intervention.

Active comparator: Games - The active control is composed of a blend of board games, computer games, and trivia quizzes. Specific content is personalized based on individual preferences, so as to reflect the flexibility of the experimental arms.
