  1. Mean values, and standard deviation, for training indicators for each group at pre- and post-intervention. ‘F’ denotes the fitness training intervention; ‘F + C’ denotes the fitness plus cognitive training intervention; ‘F + C + M’ denotes the fitness plus cognitive training plus meditation intervention; and ‘AC’ denotes the Active Control. Fat-free VO2 max is the maximum volume of oxygen consumed in milliliters of oxygen per kilogram of lean body mass per minute. MAAS stands for Mindful Attention Awareness Scale. For the cognitive and active control training, the means and standard deviations are rounded to the nearest integer. These integer values represent levels of training difficulty, with 1 representing the easiest level, which was also the starting level for all participants. For the cognitive and active control training, the value listed at Pre represents the mean level of difficulty across all participants for the first session while the value listed at Post represents the mean level of difficulty for the final session. Also see Supplementary Table 3 for more details about the Mind Frontiers training tasks
