“…Strength training is a very important factor in avoiding sarcopenia, optimizing functional capacity, and favoring the performance of the activities of daily living [25]. In addition, the improvement of lower body strength is of great importance for older people, since it provides them with balance and security when performing the ADL [26].…”

The objective of this research was to determine the differences in autonomy in both basic activities of daily life in instrumental activities of daily life, as well as functional capacity, fragility and risk of falls between an active group and a sedentary group. The individual associations of functional capacity, fragility and risk of falls were also analyzed, with autonomy in basic activities of daily living and in instrumental activities of daily living in the active group. In this cross-sectional investigation, 139 people from Huelva between 65 and 87 years of age were evaluated (Mean (M) = 73.1; standard deviation (SD) = 5.86); 100 were women and 39 men. The active and sedentary group were composed of 69 and 70 elderly people, respectively. The active group carried out a physical activity program. Among the results, a significant effect was seen in the multivariate contrast of the study variables, V = 0.24, F (5, 137) = 8.58, and p < 0.001; while in the linear regressions in the active group, the Vivifrail with the Barthel Index (Δ Adj. R2 = 0.15) and with the Lawton and Brody Scale (Δ Adj. R2 = 0.22) were used. In conclusion, the active group presented better values in all the variables evaluated in comparison to the sedentary group, establishing statistically significant differences. In addition, in the active group, it has been found that functional capacity is a significant predictive variable of autonomy in instrumental activities of daily living (22%), while fragility and the risk of falls are significant predictors of autonomy in activities of basic daily life (15%).

“…The cascade of these changes are in part to a number of factors such as the remodelling of the neuromuscular system which occurs in ageing through the loss of motor neurons (Piasecki et al 2016 ), alongside the slowing of contractile properties (Yu et al 2007 ). It has been shown, however, that muscle strength is positively related to physical activity levels in the older person (Latorre-Roman et al 2016 ). An increase in physical activity levels may thus reverse the loss of strength in the older person and improve functional performance.…”

A lesser 6-min walk distance (6MWD) and timed up-and-go (TUG) in old compared with young adults was previously linked to slowing of muscle contractile properties. The purpose of the present study was to determine whether any further reductions in 6MWD and TUG over a 5-year period in septuagenarians are associated with further slowing of muscle contractile properties. We measured muscle function by a countermovement jump, isometric maximal knee extensor strength (MVC) on a dynamometer and quadriceps muscle size by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in 17 older women (71.1 ± 2.8 y) and 17 older men (71.3 ± 4.1y). Performance in TUG and 6MWD were reduced over the 5-year period, irrespective of sex (P < 0.001), and both were correlated with power at both baseline and follow-up (R ≥ 0.53; P ≤ 0.001). Jump take-off velocity (VCMJ) was slower at follow-up (P < 0.01) and correlated with 6MWD and TUG at both baseline and follow-up in both sexes (R ≥ 0.54; P ≤ 0.001). However, the relationship between ‘body mass: maximal muscle force ratio’ with VCMJ was not significantly changed, indicating that the lower VCMJ was attributable to muscles working at a higher relative load, hence a lower part of the force–velocity relationship, due to a reduction in MVC (body mass had not changed significantly), rather than slowing of the muscle. The lower VCMJ in women than men (P < 0.001) was likewise attributable to a lower MVC rather than slower contractile properties in women. In conclusion, the decrement in 6MWD and TUG in septuagenarians is due to a loss of muscle mass, rather than further loss of muscle quality.

“…Resultados que están apoyados por estudios recientes en los que se ha encontrado que la relación del nivel de AF semanal con la calidad de vida estaba mediado en parte por el nivel de CF general (Garcia-Rubio et al, 2015). En otro estudio, la fuerza muscular ,componente importante de la CF, es un indicador útil para revelar el grado de AF en adultos mayores (Latorre-Román et al, 2016), sin embargo, no hemos conseguido resultados similares que apoyen esta afirmación. Por el contrario, una baja resistencia cardio respiratoria puede ser indicativo de riesgo para la salud (Secchi & García, 2013), siendo la salud, una variable que se ve beneficiada y que se asocia a la cantidad de AF en adultos (Lera-López et al, 2017) y nuestro estudio sin embargo sí que relaciona de forma significativa esta variable con la práctica de AF durante toda la vida y en los últimos 5 años, lo que hemos denominado a largo plazo.…”

La sostenibilidad de la actividad física es un tema relacionado con la autoeficacia o la condición física como factores influyentes vinculados al comportamiento de actividad física. Los objetivos se centran en analizar qué tipo de relaciones transversales existen entre la condición física, la autoeficacia y expectativas de resultados con la actividad física en un grupo de 88 mujeres pertenecientes a la provincia de Córdoba con edad media de 53.85 años. Para evaluar la condición física se utilizó la batería de pruebas Senior Fitness Test (SFT); para la Autoeficacia se utilizó, la “Escala de Autoeficacia para el Ejercicio” (SEE) y para la Expectativas de resultado se utilizó la “Escala de Expectativas de Resultados para el Ejercicio” (OEE); para la AF se utilizó el Cuestionario Internacional de Actividad física (IPAQ). Los resultados mostraron que existen relaciones positivas entre los constructos de salud con la actividad física. En particular, existen relaciones entre la condición física general y la resistencia y la autoeficacia con la práctica de actividad física. Según los resultados expuestos, evaluar la condición física nos podría ayudar a conocer la práctica a medio y largo plazo, así como, evaluar la autoeficacia nos podría ayudar a conocer la práctica a corto y medio plazo de un grupo de mujeres adultas de mediana edad sin patología limitante, adscritas a diferentes programas de actividad física. Palabras clave: Actividad física, condición física, autoeficacia y expectativas de resultados, mujeres, adultez madura. Abstract. Sustainability of physical activity is a topic related to self-efficacy or physical fitness as influential factors linked to physical activity behaviour. The objectives are focused on analysing what kind of cross-sectional relationships exist between physical fitness, self-efficacy and expectations of results with physical activity in a group of 88 women from the province of Cordoba with an average age of 53.85 years. The Senior Fitness Test (SFT) test battery was used to assess physical fitness; the "Self-Efficacy for Exercise Scale" (SEE) was used for self-efficacy and the "Outcome Expectations for Exercise Scale" (OEE) was used for outcome expectations; the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) was used for physical activity. The results showed that there are positive relationships between the health constructs with physical activity. In particular, there are relationships between general physical fitness and endurance and self-efficacy with physical activity. According to the results presented, assessing physical fitness could help us to know the practice in the medium and long term, as well as assessing self-efficacy could help us to know the practice in the short and medium term of a group of middle-aged adult women without limiting pathology, attached to different physical activity programmes. Keywords: Physical activity, physical fitness, self-efficacy and outcome expectations, women, middle-aged adulthood.
