Due to the ongoing outbreak of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), it is currently difficult to conduct in-person exercise classes. We thus started the program of an online physical exercise with musical accompaniment. Several interesting differences were found in the characteristics of the online participants compared with our previous in-person interventions.
The total number of subjects was 88 (71.2 ± 4.9 years old; male 42, female 46). The questionnaire included the attributes of the participants, the perceived advantages of the exercise classes, and the presence or absence of noticeable changes in cognitive and physical function after participating in the classes.
The personal computers used to attend the online classes were operated by the participants themselves. About 42% of the participants felt that their sense of day of the week and volition were improved by attending the exercise classes for 3 months. The most frequent answer to the reason for participation was because it was free (81.8%). The second most frequent answer was because the classes were held online (75.0%). Almost half of the participants answered that they would not participate if it was held in person because of the risk of COVID-19 infection (75.0%) and the difficulty getting to the site where the exercise classes were held (59.1%).
Online physical exercise with musical accompaniment improved the perceived orientation, volition, activity, exercise habits, and health condition in 30-40% of the participants and also stimulated greater participation by males compared to classes held in person.
由于2019年冠状病毒病（COVID-19）疫情持续，目前难以开展线下健身课程。因此，我们启动了一项有音乐伴奏的在线体育锻炼项目。与我们之前的线下干预相比，在线参与者的特征存在一些有趣的差异。
受试者总数为88人（年龄71.2±4.9岁；男性42人，女性46人）。问卷包括参与者的属性、对健身课程的感知优势，以及参加课程后认知和身体功能是否有明显变化。
用于参加在线课程的个人电脑由参与者自己操作。约42%的参与者感觉参加3个月的健身课程后，他们的星期感和意志力有所改善。参与原因最常见的回答是因为免费（81.8%）。第二常见的回答是因为课程是在线举办的（75.0%）。几乎一半的参与者回答，如果是线下课程，由于COVID-19感染风险（75.0%）以及前往健身课程举办地点困难（59.1%），他们不会参加。
有音乐伴奏的在线体育锻炼使30%-40%的参与者的方向感、意志力、活动量、锻炼习惯和健康状况得到改善，并且与线下课程相比，男性参与度更高。
