“…In terms of aerobic capacity, the mean distance in meters covered in this study was slightly lower in the second evaluation, although the difference was not significant, a finding mirrored by Rosa et al 10 However, Ribeiro et al, 20 in a similar study, obtained a noticeable improvement between the first and the second evaluation.…”

“…This result agreed with the findings of Ribeiro et al 20 whose intervention took the form of 24 fitness sessions and eight weeks of detraining. Another study 10 which analyzed the influence of interrupting water-based activities on the functional aptitude of the elderly, obtained a contrasting result, in which there was a significant reduction in agility after a 12 week interval.…”

“…9 However, after an interruption in training, there were no significant losses in strength, aerobic capacity and flexibility, while there was a significant improvement in agility performance following a break in activities. 10 Considering the above, a study was designed that had the aim of analyzing the trainability and reversibility of variables of physical fitness in elderly persons who took part in an eight month functional fitness training program and the possible reduction in performance after an interruption for three months. This form of training consisted of exercises with changes in speed, varying amplitudes, changes in direction and different environments, without the use of equipment, aimed at training specific abilities, and was chosen because its effects on the physical fitness of elderly persons have been little investigated to date.…”

Minute Walk Test) was used. The intervention period lasted for eight months, and the detraining period took three months. Descriptive and inferential statistics with paired Student t-test and Scheffé post hoc was used. Results: The performance of the age groups differed in agility and aerobic capacity; Trainability was identified in the strength and resistance variables of the lower and upper limbs, and the flexibility of the lower limbs; Detraining was perceived in the strength and resistance of upper limbs, and aerobic capacity. Conclusion: A Functional Gymnastics program produces positive effects on the strength and resistance of the lower and upper limbs, and flexibility of the lower limbs in elderly women. An interruption period lasting three months results in detraining in strength and resistance of the lower limbs and aerobic capacity.

“…Isso intensifica o processo de envelhecimento e, em consequência, produz uma aparência mais debilitada. Rosa et al (2008) observaram que um período de 12 semanas de destreino em atividades de hidroginástica e natação acarreta perdas no índice de aptidão funcional geral e na coordenação de idosas. Esses resultados, segundo os autores, levaram a que um maior número de idosas passasse a ter aptidão considerada fraca.…”

Este estudo buscou investigar as caracterís-ticas de estilo de vida, práticas de atividades físicas e dores musculoesqueléticas de idosas ativas. Foram avaliadas 71 idosas por meio de um questionário com perguntas fechadas e semiabertas e questionário de Corlett e Bishop (1976) para identificação das queixas musculoesqueléticas. Os resultados indicam que, além da atividade de ginástica, 71,3% das idosas realizam hidroginástica; 88,89% dos idosos procuraram os exercícios físicos pelo fato de melhorar a qualidade de vida. A frequên-cia semanal de realização das atividades é de uma vez na semana para 67,1% das idosas e duas vezes na semana para 32,9%; 68,2% das idosas passam a maior parte do tempo caminhando. As queixas foram identificadas principalmente na região cervical (64,7%), seguida dos braços (58,8%) e da região lombar (47,1%). Um fato a destacar é o uso de medicamentos por 50% das idosas investigadas para o combate dos sintomas de dor e desconforto musculoesquelético. São necessárias intervenções com programas de educação em saúde e de exercícios físicos voltados à melhora das queixas apresentadas pelas idosas, agindo como atividade preventiva e melhorando a qualidade de vida.Palavras-chave: Idoso.

Introduction: During aging, significant declines in muscle strength decrease people's functional capacity. In this context, Concurrent Training (TC in Portuguese abbreviation) can lead to improvements in muscle strength and cardiorespiratory capacity. However, there are few studies on the influence of the performance order of this training on the variables of static and dynamic balance. Objective: To evaluate the effect of the performance order of TC, Aerobic-Strength and Strength-Aerobic (respectively AF and FA in Portuguese abbreviation), on the static and dynamic balance, as well as muscle strength of elderly people. Material and Methods: 38 elderly men and women participated in the study, who were divided into two groups: AF (n=19) and AF (n=19). The training was carried out during 12 weeks, in which the aerobic training consisted of walking with intensity prescribed by the Borg Scale of Perceived Exertion (PE) (6-20) and the strength training consisted of six exercises, with intensity controlled by zones of Maximum Repetitions (RM, in Portuguese abbreviation). Static (area and displacement of plantar pressure center in bipedal support with eyes closed and open) and dynamic (Timed Up and Go and Tandem March) balance were evaluated, as well as maximum dynamic force of knee extension and bench press. For the data analysis, the Generalized Estimation Equations were used with Bonferroni's complementary test (α=0.05).Results: For the static and dynamic balance, there was no effect of the 12 weeks of combined training, regardless of the order of execution. This result demonstrates that both groups presented a maintenance of equilibrium variables during the intervention period. In strength, there was an improvement in the lower limbs (FA: 16%; FA: 11%; p<0.001) and upper (FA: 22.0%; FA: 8, 7%; p<0.001), with no difference between groups. Conclusion: There is no difference between the performance order of TC in the variables of static and dynamic balance and strength of upper and lower limbs. However, after training, significant advances were considered in the variables of strength and maintenance of static and dynamic balance.
