Conditions
Interventions
After the selection and the acceptance of children / adolescents and their guardians to participate in the study, the sample will be randomized using a specific software that will randomize them in p
followed by strengthening: patients will wear on their wrists an adjustable neoprene weight

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is expected to find an increase in aerobic fitness, measured by oxygen consumption, and in muscle endurance, measured by time of fatigue test and peak torque using the Linear Mixed Effects Model method and considering significant an alpha lower than 5% in the preintervention, middle of intervention A, end of intervention A and beginning of intervention B, middle of intervention B, and end of intervention. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is expected to find a maintenance of aerobic fitness, measured by oxygen consumption, and muscle endurance, measured by time of fatigue and peak torque test using the Linear Mixed Effects Model method and considering significant an alpha lower than 5% in 6 months and 1 year after intervention. | — |
