Abstract

With the help of an online livestream exercise intervention, the COFIT-20 project wants to counteract the deterioration in psychological and physical functioning and stimulate the social interactions of people with a severe psychological disorder. Together with the various partners (the GGZ, the municipality, the sport experts and the experiential experts) UMC Utrecht wants to develop a protocol for an online livestream exercise intervention that will be given by exercise coaches.
