Effects of Combined Exercise on Body Composition, Muscle Strength and Cardiorespiratory Fitness in Older Adults

The impact of exercise training on the lipid peroxidation metabolomic profile and respiratory infection risk in older adults

“…To evaluate efficacy of the exercise training, cardiorespiratory fitness, assessed by 6‐Minute Walk Test (6MWT), flexibility evaluated by Chair Sit & Reach, muscular endurance measured with 30‐s Chair‐Stand Test and lower limbs isokinetic strength were used. After the intervention, there was an improvement of both isokinetic strength, muscular endurance and flexibility and an increase of 25.5 m in the 6MWT (Arend E & Carvalho, 2015). After the trial, subjects from the CG were invited to participate in exercise sessions.…”
