After acceptance of the patient, formalized by the signing of informed consent, participants will be randomly assigned, at random into three groups: (G1) Training through vibrating platform (n = 32):
(G2) House Training - control (n = 32): the women of this group will receive a booklet containing information and exercises day-day. The evaluation of the function of the pelvic floor muscles and abom

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Urinary tract infection; Zero Degree of contractility of the PF muscles, according to the Modified Oxford Scale; Presence prolapse grade III or IV; myopathies and diseases recognized modification of collagen;neurological abnormalities; Metabolic diseases (diabetes) or chronic lung; Acute headaches; Herniated disc, disc disease or spondylolisthesis; Prostheses in the hips and knees; Pacemaker; Recent Deployment pins, plates and scres; tumors; retinal problems;IUD – Intrauterine Device"

Design outcomes

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Difference of the pelvic floor muscles function, ranked by Modified Oxford Scale, during maximal voluntary contraction before and after the strengthening protocol. Difference in the electrical activity of the abdominal muscles measured by electromyography during maximal voluntary contraction before and after performing the strengthening protocol.

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Check for increased contractility of the pelvic floor muscles through electromyographic activity of surface (method that evaluate muscle function) in all groups. Observe through electromyography if there are changes in coactivation between the muscles of the pelvic floor and transverse abdominal / internal oblique after training.
