Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To describe the effects of minimal-dose resistance training on cardiac cardiac autonomic modulation compared to the control group. It is expected that the practice of minimal-dose resistance training can be reinforced for HRV and consequently for the assessment of cardiovascular health measurements. Data will be automatically tested from shape change: two maintenance measures on non-consecutive days, followed by active tilt, to assess automatic dysfunction caused by postural. These consultations will be repeated after 4 weeks of the protocol in both intervention and control groups. evaluated through linear indices in the time and frequency domain and non-linear indices. As an analysis tool, it will be the Elite HRV application for mobile devices, whose data will be exported via email for use as HRV in the Kubios 2.2 software. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To describe the effects of minimal-dose RT on functional capacity in menopausal women compared with the control group. It is expected that the practice of minimal-dose resistance training may be beneficial for functional capacity in menopausal women. It will be evaluated through the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) tests and the 6-minute walk test. Measurements taken before and after the 4-week intervention for both intervention and control groups. | — |
