Dual-task resistance exercise showed no clear effect on functional fitness in humans.
“There was no significant difference between time and group in terms of physical function”

BMC geriatrics
Dual-task resistance exercise improves functional fitness in older adults with cognitive impairment (p < 0.001).
“Cognitive function (p < 0.001), mood (p < 0.001), depression (p < 0.001), functional fitness (p < 0.001), and ADL (p < 0.001) significantly improved after dual-task resistance exercise”

BMC geriatrics
Dual-task resistance exercise improves cognitive function in older adults with cognitive impairment compared with resistance exercise (p = 0.044).
“Dual-task resistance exercise is more effective than resistance exercise in improving cognitive function in older adults with cognitive impairment.”
