    Heart Rate Variability; Conditional Entropy

    Change from baseline heart rate variability and conditional entropy at 16 weeks of multicomponent training and after 6 weeks of detraining

  • Linear and nonlinear measurements of musculoskeletal systems

    Knee extensor torque complexity

    Change from baseline knee extensor torque complexity at 16 weeks of multicomponent training and after 6 weeks of detraining

  • Cognition Measures

    Addenbrooke's Cognitive Examination

    Change from baseline addenbrooke's cognitive examination at 16 weeks of multicomponent training and after 6 weeks of detraining

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Functional Measures

  • Functional Measures

    Change from baseline short physical performance battery at 16 weeks of multicomponent training and after 6 weeks of detraining

Study Arms (2)

Intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

The training group will perform a Physical Exercise as multicomponent training.

Other: Physical Exercise

Control

NO INTERVENTION

The control group will only be evaluated, without any intervention.

Interventions

The intervention program will follow the recommendations of the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM, 2009), including aerobic, muscle strength, flexibility and balance exercise. The duration of the intervention will be 16 weeks with sessions 60 min performed in three alternate days.

Also known as: Multicomponent exercise training
