Preliminary findings from this study applied the cardiac metabolic performance benchmark (CMPB3) to compare the effectiveness of increasing cerebral blood circulation at different intensities (CMPB3 ≤ 35, 40, 45, 50). Results indicated that CMPB3 levels above 40 effectively increased cerebral blood circulation, with improvements observed not only during exercise but also during the post-exercise rest period, where cerebral blood flow remained higher than the baseline level. The lower intensity means the lower exercise intensity and the higher ability to perform aerobic walking exercise.

This study will adopt semi-structured interviews to gain an in-depth understanding of participants' experiences and perceptions of the walking program, as well as to complement and interpret quantitative data.

It is a qualitative data, not a quantitative data.

The interview content covers three major themes:

1. Benefits of the walking program;
2. Experiences and challenges of the walking program;
3. The impact of the walking program on quality of life, sleep quality, concussion symptoms, psychological resilience, depression, exercise motivation, exercise self-efficacy, and physical activity.

Garmin Vivosmart 5. This wearable device will track heart rate, exercise intensity, and sleep patterns. Data will be integrated with the Garmin Connect app for real-time monitoring and feedback. Through our preliminary study conducted by the research team in 2020 showed a high correlation (r = 0.91) between the heart rate measurements of the Garmin Vivosmart and the Zephyr BioHarness, validating its accuracy for home-based heart rate monitoring. Participants will wear the device at home to facilitate real-time tracking of exercise intensity and physiological responses during the intervention. HR will be track every second. Advanced sleep tracking in compatible Garmin devices takes into account multiple factors to help understanding of sleep. In addition to the basics, such as when participants fell asleep and when they woke up, researchers can see times when they were awake and how much time they spent in key sleep stages (light, deep, REM).
