Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To verify the effect of Mat Pilates training on cardiovascular responses, anthropometric measures, and strength in perimenopausal women; It is expected that ground-based Pilates exercise training will improve cardiovascular, anthropometric, and strength indices after the intervention. Additionally, we hypothesize that women in the post-menopausal period may have poorer health indicators and thus may show more significant improvements compared to pre-menopausal women and post-menopausal women using hormonal therapy | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To relate climacteric symptoms and sleep quality to the physiological responses of Mat Pilates training in perimenopausal women; It is expected that after the training, women may have improved sleep quality and physiological responses;To relate blood and saliva biochemical markers to cardiovascular and anthropometric responses among pre- and post-menopausal women, with and without hormonal therapy use | — |
