"Beyond Yoga: Elevating Mind-Body Exercise to Battle Cognitive Decline"

4 days ago

“Combining physical activity with cognitive training yields better results than either alone. Here’s what you can do.”

We’re pleased to share highlights from this fascinating and educational article in NextAvenue.org. Author Rashelle Brown explores the history and science of efforts to slow the aging process by combining physical with cognitive training. She takes us through the evolution of this proven concept, from traditional “mind-body” exercises like Yoga to emerging “mind+body” solutions including SMARTfit.

“Physical activity and cognitive training are two lifestyle factors that have been widely studied, with each showing a degree of benefit” writes Brown. “More recently, however, scientists, and a few entrepreneurs, have been combining the two in hopes of achieving better outcomes. In this article, we take a look at that science — and the emerging technology it is spawning.

Dr. Esther Karssemeijer, who wrote her PhD thesis on the topic of combined physical and cognitive exercise at Radboud University, Netherlands noted that doing physical activity at the same time as performing cognitive tasks, known in the research as “simultaneous” training, seems to be more effective than doing physical activity right before or after a session of cognitive training, known as “sequential” training.”

Brown continues by explaining simultaneous training and its benefits…

“Yoga is often thought of as “mind-body” exercise: an activity that seeks to bring the mind and body into harmony through movement and breath. That can be fantastic for reducing stress and improving focus, all while creating a little movement and improving flexibility.

However, the simultaneous training being studied by brain scientists is more like “mind+body” exercise: two different activities done at once, each requiring a different type of focus and attention.

It’s this “dual-task” training that appears to confer the greater benefits. By way of example, here are three companies that have created products or services based on the simultaneous training concept.”

SMARTfit is one of several “beyond Yoga” examples Brown features in the article:

“In Camarillo, California, Cathi Lamberti, a former schoolteacher turned entrepreneur, has come up with a very different approach to simultaneous training. SmartFit is an electronic gaming system Lamberti described as “a 360-degree cognitive gym that you respond to with your decision-making brain.” The system can be configured in countless different ways, making it accessible to people with a wide variety of physical abilities.”

SMARTfit Inc. Reviewed Financials Officially Released

about 1 month ago

SMARTfit Inc. today reported its financial results for 2021, reflecting an industry turnaround in the latter part of the year.

"2021 has laid the foundation for accelerating growth in 2022," said Cathi Lamberti, Chief Executive Officer and Board Chair. "These results reflect growing market recognition and acceptance of our Company's game-changing rehabilitative and fitness solutions that integrate brain and body performance."

Financial highlights in 2021:

New Product – 4th Q results – The SMARTfit Low-Impact Mini was developed for mass production in 2021 and started shipping in October 2021. The 4th quarter 2021 revenue was $755,000 representing over 50% of annual sales. Of the total 4th quarter 2021 revenue, $443,000 is attributed to the Low-Impact model. This demonstrates the importance of the Low-Impact Mini to the scalability of the Company.
The development of multi-site software was completed in July 2021 prior to the launch of the low-impact portable system. This prepared the Company to fulfill an opening order of 60 systems from a customer that provides rehab services to 380 long-term care facilities. This new software deploys programming across an entire organization and tracks both baseline and progress reports on individuals, trainers and groups at all facilities. This data will be used to market the effectiveness of the organizations’ services and serves as a test case for our Company’s technology.
The world’s first Cloud based Dual Task Cost Assessment for independent and assisted level older adults is complete. We believe this Assessment is the first to objectively measure the loss of cognitive and/or motor capability when a cognitive task and a motor task are done simultaneously. The loss of reaction time has proven to be a reliable indicator of fall risk, according to research published in the American Journal of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation. Researchers believe SMARTfit's systems provide the first standardization of physical reaction time testing.

CAMARILLO, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, April 19, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- SMARTfit Inc. is pleased to announce the appointment of Jason Polete to its board of directors. Mr. Polete is the Chief Executive Officer of MDAmerica Group. He has spent nearly three decades in healthcare technology and administration, with extensive experience in the rehabilitative/rehabilitation service industries, involving operational, administrative and revenue cycle aspects of the business. MDAmerica is SMARTfit's dealer in New York and New Jersey.

“Given his history and experience with building medical technology companies, Jason Polete brings to our board of directors a specialized focus that we believe will significantly contribute to advancing our goals for growing the company in the medical rehabilitation and senior markets,” said Cathi Lamberti, SMARTfit's CEO and Board Chair. “We are pleased to add Jason to our board to help guide our company going forward. Jason will be focusing on corporate level guidance, introducing the company to business opportunities in the medical and retirement markets, procuring government contracts, and applying his expertise in obtaining business with Medicare.”

Mr. Polete discussed his motivation for joining the board of directors as an incoming investor. “Medicare allocates $30-$50 billion for prevention of debilitating accidents and diseases.

SMARTfit’s ability to not only identify specific needs but also to provide the appropriate training programs is unprecedented.

Medicare also requires documentation of individual progress, and the collection of data is of utmost importance. SMARTfit's technology is able to meet this stringent requirement with objective data, as opposed to subjective reporting," he said. "I am excited by the impressive capability of SMARTfit's systems to address all of these issues, and I look forward to assisting the company in navigating the approval process with Medicare and other government institutions.”

Mr. Polete has spent nearly 3 decades in the healthcare technology and administration industry and has extensive experience in the rehabilitative fields in the operational, administrative and revenue cycle aspects of the business. He has worked closely with hundreds of OT and PT providers, as well as premier rehabilitative institutions such as Kessler Institute for Rehabilitation. His knowledge of the the industry and extensive experience in assisting clients with management and development of their businesses will be advantageous to SMARTfit's growth.

Further, Mr. Polete sees the benefit of the investment opportunity in SMARTfit. He plans to take on distributorship of SMARTfit solutions in the states of New York and New Jersey. He states, “I have a very well-qualified team on the clinical side, and once I have the product in place and my staff trained, they will successfully execute on the plan. I will focus personally on corporate level support and on larger contracts as well as fund raising.”

Mr Polete will be filling a vacant seat on the board until the next annual shareholder meeting at which time he plans to run for another term.

Play Smart, Get Fit and have Fun With SMARTfit – A Brain-Body Wellness Solution for 55+ Facilities

about 1 month ago

CAMARILLO, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, April 12, 2022 -- Surveys show that older adults fear loss of independence more than they fear death. A decline in cognition or physical ability is worrisome to anyone, and the aging “baby boomer” population’s willingness to invest in delaying these declines opens a strong business opportunity for fitness providers who want to provide solutions that are attractive to this demographic.

This is where SMARTfit shines! It is the reason it has become the go-to choice for 55+ fitness and wellness facilities. Research suggests that engaging in cognitive-motor training simultaneously can be more beneficial than one or the other separately. SMARTfit’s cognitive-motor gamified programming is fun, socially engaging, and offers appropriate, flexible challenges. Participation can have a profound impact on fall prevention, cognitive decline, and general fitness.

SMARTfit’s gamified training not only attracts participation, it actually simulates real life by triggering mental goals that are achieved with physical engagement which results in neurogenesis across the entire neurological system. Because its diverse activities are experienced as games rather than tedious or boring exercise, SMARTfit assists participants in rapidly meeting and exceeding both their mental and physical fitness goals.

“I’ve been working out regularly on SMARTfit for 3 years and it has improved my life,” says Leslie Brtek, a 73-year-old retired school teacher from Santa Barbara, CA. “It creates the engagement and demand that makes it all happen. I start with the intention to get in a few minutes’ workout but it invariably turns into an hour because I’m having fun. I see the difference in my daily life; my mental processing is quicker and I’m staying fit. Thanks to SMARTfit, I have more confidence about my ability to take care of myself as I age.”

Older adults can greatly benefit from SMARTfit because it is fun and engaging and keeps them motivated as their mental and physical skills build rapidly. Brtek sums up, “SMARTfit meets you were you are and takes you were you want to go. I enjoy it and I look forward to my workouts.”

Activate Brain & Body and SMARTfit®: Using Science and Technology to Extend Healthspan

about 2 months ago

CAMARILLO, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, March 29, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Activate Brain & Body and SMARTfit are on a mission to help people maintain healthy, active lifestyles by pairing technology with science-based programs that can lead to a better brain and body. Their shared goal is to extend healthspan, not just lifespan.

Extensive scientific research shows that challenging the brain and body together using a technique called Dual-Task Training is faster and more effective at activating neuroplasticity in the brain than training the brain and body separately. Activate has collaborated with SMARTfit for over three years to optimize a program for Dual-Task Training that will be offered in a first-of-its-kind brain and body fitness center in Cincinnati, Ohio in April 2022. SMARTfit, a foundational part of Activate's programming, was created by leading clinicians, trainers, and engineers.

At their new center, the Activate Brain & Body team of experienced Certified Brain Health Trainers and neuroscience experts created several proprietary workouts, including The Cognitive Circuit™, which uses SMARTfit equipment and technology for Dual-Task Training. With the guidance of highly trained coaches, members will participate in personalized brain-centric programs and workouts designed to build the all-important Physical and Cognitive Reserves that may protect against cognitive decline while positively affecting the body. Research shows that exercise has a profound neuroprotective effect on the brain and that Dual-Task Training not only enhances cognitive function and mood but can also radically improve the trajectory of aging by providing years of healthy living.

Activate CEO John Spence expands on the decision to partner with SMARTfit: "Members tell us that they enjoy having SMARTfit as part of their personalized program. They find the gamified technology unique, fun, engaging, and challenging. In addition, SMARTfit provides assessments, programming, and data for each member that can validate and quantify training progress and inform variations specific to each member."

Atlantis Physical Therapy Relies on SMARTfit in Their Neuro-Rehabilitation and Brain Health Programs

2 months ago

CAMARILLO, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, March 22, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Atlantis Physical Therapy, located in Torrance, CA and a franchisee of the Fyzical group, has long been a trusted partner by the region’s physicians in vestibular and balance rehabilitation. Since 2019, as one of the first PT facilities to purchase SMARTfit, owner Ruth Kurihara, has expanded to offer a more comprehensive approach by combining traditional physical and occupational therapy featuring dual-task training that employs both cognitive and physical activity simultaneously.

Brain research continues to confirm the concept of neuroplasticity: the brain’s ability to change, adapt and even rewire itself when challenged to do so. Research also confirms that patient engagement and high repetitions of motor movement are needed for neuroplasticity to begin. Because constant motivation for neuro rehab patients is often challenging, SMARTfit has been designed to be fun and engaging while also scaling all games to meet each individual’s cognitive and physical ability.

“SMARTfit is an amazing piece of equipment. It has allowed us to take our neuro and ortho rehab programs to a new level. Best of all, its scalable to meet the varied needs of our patients regardless of their abilities. The patients find it engaging unlike anything they have done before. They look forward to using it and feel a real sense of accomplishment and progression. The SMARTfit system has become a cornerstone of our new Covid-19 Rehab program and allowed us to develop a more robust Functional Aging/Brain Health Program. It has truly transformed how we deliver patient care.” Explains Kurihara.

SMARTfit Technology Helps Improve Physical Performance and Brain Health with Dual-Tasking

The SMARTfit Physical Therapy program puts a focus on improving motor and cognitive outcomes, both independently and simultaneously. It can aid in the treatment of orthopedic and neurological conditions in an integrated manner, eliminating the mind-body dualism of most rehab approaches. By leveraging the most cutting-edge methodologies in rehabilitation, Atlantis therapists can now implement dual-tasking, optimal motor learning, gamified rehab, and target-based movement to any need, from post-operative knee surgeries to traumatic brain injuries.

SMARTfit’s pre-designed programming offers easy-to-access activities for all of our patient population including:

- Seniors with Balance and Gait Issues

- Concussion Patients

- Stroke Patients

- Parkinson’s Disease Patients

- Patients with Movement Disorders

SMARTfit Positions Itself to Be at the Forefront of the Global Cognitive Assessment and Training Market

2 months ago

CAMARILLO, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, March 16, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- With the global cognitive assessment and training market projected to grow over 600% by 2028, SMARTfit Inc., a technology platform focused on training the brain and body together sets its eyes on capturing a significant portion of this multi-billion dollar market opportunity with its unique blend of gamified, customizable and scalable training programs.

Already in over 600 locations in 14 countries, SMARTfit is targeting neuro rehabilitation, physical therapy, active aging, senior care, fitness, and human performance training facilities which are all part of this same, fast-growing market.

The idea is simple – The brain and body can be trained to work more effectively together using new gamified SMARTfit technology, which enhances cognitive function, physical mobility, and overall performance.

The results are compelling – reduced fall risk, improved daily activity function and rehab outcomes, quicker athletes, superior soldiers, and more.

Implementation is easy with SMARTfit’s evidence-based gamified technology and programming.

SMARTfit founder and CEO Cathi Lamberti explains: “At the start, we quickly realized the challenge of capturing the reaction time of the fastest humans in a 360-degree playing environment. We realized there was no operating system fast enough to achieve this on an affordable computer processor.

SMARTfit technology had to fully engage the very fastest performers as well as the most frail without ever under-challenging or overwhelming either. It had to be adaptable to cognitive and physical input ranging from a single person to a team in a group training environment. It is reminiscent of Microsoft having to create the Windows operating system before it could offer MS Office. To ensure SMARTfit’s solutions could be affordable, a major challenge to SMARTfit’s engineers was to enable a micro-computer to achieve results previously available only with a costly supercomputer. They also had to capture individual personal performance data for baseline and progress-tracking purposes in a 360-degree training arena with up fifty participants. ”

Lamberti continues: “Today we are excited to affirm that these challenges have been met, and have created a strong and versatile foundation for today’s SMARTfit products, as well as for those planned for the future. Our decision in 2012 to create our own operating system rather than trying to adapt to existing ones proved essential to our success today.

SMARTfit is a disruptor to human training programs. Our choice to launch our fundraising campaign on StartEngine is also a disruptor as it allows us to bypass venture capital in order to better protect the interests of our founding shareholders. SMARTfit’s technology and product lines are complete and the concept has been proven in over 600 rehab, retirement and performance facilities, now allowing incoming investments to go toward funding our growth.”

SMARTfit’s Gamified Programming is Highly Engaging and Measures a Full Range of Cognitive Function and Physical Mobility

CAMARILLO, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, March 3, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- SMARTfit’s gamified technology rapidly enhances cognitive function and physical mobility by training the brain and body to work more effectively together. This proven approach improves results for a variety of rehab, wellness, and human performance applications. It’s perfect for concussion rehab.

Banner – University Sports Medicine and Concussion Specialists use SMARTfit as a key component of their comprehensive approach to concussion care. They provide baseline concussion testing for children and adults to identify neurocognitive, balance, fine-motor and visual integration challenges.

“SMARTfit is a smart choice,” says Elizabeth McQueary, OT, and Concussion Specialist. “I really enjoy this tool. I use it every day with almost all of my patients. They love it! Some refuse to leave without working out on SMARTfit. It is a great tool that advances otherwise basic care plans and makes it more engaging and motivating for patients.

I use it for patients from all age groups. My youngest patient is 7 and my oldest is 70. It is so versatile and maximizes my ability to treat in the short time available. I use my iPad to choose programming and I can easily change things up as I go. It gives the patient insight into how they are doing because you can track results and show how they perform one day to the next.

I find SMARTfit’s Dual-Task Cost tests and retests helpful as a great way to track, objectively, how a patient is progressing and how they improve over time. They are a great time saver to print out data that can support the benefits of the treatment and assist in effective and clear documentation.

SMARTfit is wonderful. I can use it in so many different ways and it is a great tool in my clinic.”

USC Research Team Completes 3-year Pilot Study on Parkinson Disease Using SMARTfit

3 months ago

CAMARILLO, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, February 22, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Exercise and physical therapy (PT) have become central features of the treatment for Parkinson’s Disease (PD) and is considered disease-modifying. A University of Southern California (USC) study is the first to evaluate the feasibility of employing an innovative gamified training platform for PD https://www.mdpi.com/1660-4601/18/23/12384/ . The platform, SMARTfit, facilitates visual-tactile interaction and is ideal for dual-task training. The study was co-led by Dr. Charles Liu and Dr. Beth Fisher and was a collaboration between the USC’s Neurorestoration Center and the Division of Biokinesiology and Physical Therapy.

“Our SMARTfit technology is focused on the entire spectrum of human health and brain-body fitness,” said Cathi Lamberti, CEO of SMARTfit Inc. “This USC Neurorestoration Center-PT Biokinesiology study provides initial evidence that SMARTfit-based dual-task therapy may be better for Parkinson’s Disease patients compared with traditional single-task PT delivered by excellent therapists. Furthermore, we provide a solution that is both economical and scalable. SMARTfit is currently working with and supporting an estimated 600 sites in 14 countries where early adopters have tested many aspects of the technology.”

Dr Charles Liu, Director of the USC Neurorestoration Center, explains why he focused on Parkinson’s Disease for this research: "Many researchers have established the immense value of physical therapy for Parkinson's Disease, including the coauthors of this paper. In fact, PT has become an essential component of PD treatment. However, good physical therapy is often not available to large numbers of PD patients, and this has been exacerbated by the COVID-19 global pandemic.

In this study, we wanted to explore the feasibility of using a novel device called SMARTfit as a tool for therapists to use dual-task cognitively engaged training in treating PD patients. Although the study included only a small cohort of patients, the results were quite promising, showing that dual-task training using SMARTfit may be better than single task standard PT. Furthermore, SMARTfit dual-task training can be delivered by the therapist in a physical distancing way. We look forward to exploring this concept further."

In announcing the results of the study, Dr. Beth Fisher, Professor of Clinical Physical Therapy and well-known for her work on PD, emphasized: “It’s all about practice, practice, practice, and SMARTfit is an efficient way to accomplish this.”

The study clearly demonstrated the feasibility and safety of using SMARTfit to deliver gamified dual-task training to PD patients. Furthermore, more patients in the small cohort studied had greater improvements in the Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) scores with SMARTfit’s gamified dual-task raining compared to a conventional well-designed single-task therapy program. The research team is conducting additional studies to further explore the benefits of SMARTfit for a variety of indications that benefit from physical therapy.
