Efeitos de diferentes tipos de exercício nos parâmetros do andar de idosas

Abstract: O tipo de exercício, a intensidade e a frequência são fatores importantes para produzir mudanças na velocidade de andar. O objetivo do estudo foi comparar os efeitos de diferentes tipos de exercício nos parâmetros cinemáticos do andar de idosas, considerando as características antropométricas, a capacidade funcional e o nível de atividade física. Participaram do estudo 56 idosas que foram agrupadas de acordo com o envolvimento, a mais de seis meses, na prática específica de uma atividade: dança (n = 10), muscu… Show more

“…Because the cut-off points for classifi ca o n of the walk test were not specifi c to the sex of the individual, the men might have had some advantage over the women due to the dep endence of the locomo on speed on the step length, which is related to the stature and the muscle power in the lower extremi es (18) . It is established that, regardless of age, men have greater muscle power than women have (19) ; in this study, men likewise exhibited a signifi cantly higher mean height (P < 0.001) (data not shown).…”

“…The AG also covered greater distances in the 6-MWT. For Gonzaga et al, 23 who evaluated the levels of physical activity, functional capacity, and gaits of the elderly, the groups that practiced regular physical activity had better functional fitness than the control group. Cordeiro et al, 24 in the evaluation of quality of life (SF-36), also observed that the active elderly had significantly higher functional levels than the insufficiently active elderly, which reinforced the premise that regular physical activity provided improvement in functional capacity, even during the aging process.…”

“…Esses resultados, de semelhanças no desempenho do controle postural entre idosos praticantes de exercícios físicos, corroboram com o estudo de Alfieri et al 14 , assim como Gonzaga et al 16 . Em outros delineamentos experimentais Gauchard et al 33 , no qual, verificaram o controle postural de idosos e Ueno et al 34 por meio da capacidade funcional de diferentes grupos, encontraram diferenças entre idosos praticantes de exercícios físicos, mostrando as características distintas das modalidades.…”
