Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Bone mineral density is expected to remain stable after the intervention period (6 months), while bone and neuromuscular variables are expected to improve (1) through bone densitometry examination (2) osteocalcin examination (3) eletromiography (4) functional tests (5) Static and dynamic balance. For the Dexa exam two measurements will be done, initially and after 6 months of intervention. For all other evaluations / measurements, it will be done initially with 3 months and 6 months of intervention. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is expected that the subjective perception of effort decreases and that the perception of pleasure / displeasure due to chronic intervention increases (1) borg scale from 0 to 10 (2) affectivity scale. For the Borg scale, every training session will be measured (for 6 months). For affectivity scale, it will be measured in the first week of each month throughout the intervention. | — |
