Interventions

After the initial assessment where testing for body composition will be performed (BIA), SPPB, grip, Bartel index, TUG test, the elderly will be separated by drawing lots with envelopes, with each env
three series and progression of the load will be carried out will be based on the TUG test as stated in the protocol proposed by Clegg et al (2011). The control group will be accomplished through memo

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: presence of disabling orthopedic disease; current orthopedic disease in the past six months; decompensated blood pressure; sequel of neurological diseases, diabetic; obese (through corporal- mass index BMI); cognitive impairment moderate to severe evaluated by the mini- mental State Examination (MMSE); with moderate to severe depression evidence verified by the Geriatric depression Abbreviated Scale (GDS); in use of nutritional supplements to gain muscle mass or hormone replacement.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Expected outcome : to evaluate the muscle mass increase after functional training in sarcopenic elderly ; Evaluation method : bioimpedance quadrupole brand inbody 720 for body composition analysis with emphasis on the following parameters : muscle mass , fat-free mass ; Presentation of the method: the test will be performed before starting the intervention and at the end of the process (after 12 weeks).

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Expected outcome : to evaluate the increase of muscle strength after functional training sarcopenic elderly ; Evaluation method : will be held the handgrip test following the protocol of the American Society of Hand Therapists ( SATM ) through a dynamometer JAMAR brand , in addition to the short physical battery performance ( SPPB ) to estimate force especially in the lower limbs ( see attachments) ; Presentation of the method: the test will be performed before starting the intervention process and the end (after 12 weeks).;Expected outcome : to evaluate the effect on muscle performance after functional training sarcopenic elderly especially for activities of daily living ( basic , instrumental and even advanced) ; Evaluation method : will be held the Barthel index for the assessment of activities of daily living (see attachments) , in addition to up and go team ( TUG ) where the elderly should get up from a chair walk three meters and return to the point incicial to assess mobility and balance, as well as risk of falls ; Presentation of the method: the test will be performed before starting the intervention process and the end (after 12 weeks).
