Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Age equal to or greater than 60 years; of both sexes; having an early stage Alzheimer's diagnosis or mild cognitive decline; volunteer to participate in the study.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Elderly people who have any physical limitations that prevent participation in moderate to low intensity exercises; Have minimally preserved cognitive ability to understand the study procedures; elderly who are not served by the reference center where the research will be developed.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
It is expected that through the association of physical exercise with high cognitive demand with non-invasive brain stimulation, a significant reduction in the symptoms of elderly people in the dementia process can be verified.—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
By proving the effectiveness of the association of physical exercises with high cognitive demand with non-invasive brain stimulation, it will be possible to implement programs for the prevention and reduction of dementia symptoms in elderly people who are more efficient. Also, new studies may emerge that test other forms of physical exercise and possible associations.—
