Bike Labyrinth: Cognitive and Physical Benefits for Individuals with Dementia or Cognitive Decline
Bike Labyrinth is an innovative product offering interactive bicycle tours for individuals who are now unable to exercise outdoors, such as those who are elderly, frail, or experiencing dementia.

At Anatomical Concepts we love exercise - it is good for everyone. It can help us overcome aspects of physical disability and is good for our emotional and cognitive well being. Who wants to reduce the chances of us needing healthcare in future?
It seems that many of us are too busy or lack motivation to exercise regularly and this is especially true of older adults. With Bike Labyrinth you can explore more than 600 cycling routes and rediscover the joy of exercise whoever you are.

The study found that exergame training improved psychomotor speed, compared to an active control group. This finding may be clinically relevant as psychomotor speed is an important predictor for functional decline.
