What this Trial Is About
This is a randomized interventional clinical trial, whereby 100 participants will be randomized to either follow the SAFE exercise program (experimental group) or not (control group). At the end of the intervention, the experimental group will be encouraged to continue doing the exercises, and the control group will have the opportunity to participate in the SAFE exercises. 12 weeks post-intervention, the investigators will follow up with participants by telephone to follow up whether they are still following the SAFE program or not.
