Read our COPD research guide →This study is testing whether a structured program of aerobic and strength exercise can help people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or diabetes manage their conditions better. Researchers want to see if exercise can improve muscle strength, body composition, and how well people can perform everyday activities—as well as their overall quality of life.
COPD and diabetes are serious, long-lasting conditions that affect millions of people and can make daily life difficult. While doctors know that exercise is helpful, researchers want to understand exactly how exercise affects muscle strength, body composition, and physical function in older adults living with these diseases so they can recommend the best treatment plans.

This study will review your existing medical records from the 'Ser más' program to see how exercise has affected your strength, body composition, and ability to do everyday tasks. Researchers will look at data already collected about you rather than asking you to do anything new, making this a low-burden way to contribute to understanding how exercise helps people with chronic diseases.
