Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
it is assumed that the results obtained with the study after the application of the progressive neuromuscular training protocol, evaluate pre and post intervention the improvement in pain, which will be verified by the Visual Analog scale; increase in muscle strength verified by the kendall strength test, improvement in postural balance analyzed by the Romberg and Timed Up and Go tests, and reduction in fear of falls verified by the confidence scale in the specific balance for the activity.—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
We will observe that the results obtained in this study show a significant improvement in pain, muscle strength, balance and fear of falls in these subjects and, consequently, promote greater confidence in carrying out activities of daily living, advancement of their functional capacities and social interaction. , reduction in the number of falls, fractures and hospital admissions, reducing public health expenses and thus contributing to the construction of new scientific evidence.—
