Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome 1 - Reduction of body fat, determined through bioelectrical impedance, from the observation of a variation of at least 2% in the pre and post-intervention measurements;Expected outcome 2 - Increase in the level of components of general physical fitness. Cardiorespiratory fitness measured through the maximum effort test and the 20 meter shutlle run test; muscle strength measured by means of handgrip strength and 1 maximum repetition test and flexibility assessed with the wells and Flextest test, based on the observation of a variation of at least 2% in the pre and post-intervention measurements | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome 1 - Improvement of the cardiometabolic profile, assessed by means of the lipid profile, inflammatory profile, blood glucose, Insulinemia, C-Reactive Protein, Blood Pressure, from the finding of a variation of at least 2% in the pre and post-intervention measurements | — |
