Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome 1: It is expected that the individuals in the intervention group will improve the aerobic capacity assessed by VO2 (mL.kg-1.min-1) in the cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPX).;Outcome 1: both groups improved VO2 (mL.kg-1.min-1) during CPX. However, only the WB-EMS group achieved greater performance, reflected by a longer test time, greater walking distance, a better behavior of the blood pressure, and less leg fatigue at exercise recovery. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The intervention group is expected to improve body composition (lean mass and fat mass) assessed by bioimpedance and decrease neck, waist, and hip circumference.;Outcome 1: There was no significant difference between groups. Both groups decreased the fat and lean mass and the circumference measurements of the neck, waist, and hips.;Expected outcome 2: The intervention group is expected to improve sleep quality, as assessed by the Pittsburgh questionnaire, and the level of anxiety, as assessed by the Beck Anxiety Inventory.;Outcome 2: There was no difference between groups. Both groups improved the scores on the sleep quality questionnaire and on Beck's anxiety inventory. However, only the Sham group showed significant improvement. | — |
