Eligibility
Age
50 Years to No maximum
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Inclusion criteria are defined as, participants with a clinical diagnosis of PD following the UK brain bank criteria (HUGHES et al., 1992); both sexes; aged 50 years or over; with stable doses at; at least two weeks; no change in medication; without any functional training for at least three months.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Exclusion criteria were, participants who did not reach the MMSE cut-off point (considering educational level) (BERTOLUCCI et al., 1994); classified in stage 5 PD (HOEHN; YAHR, 1967); who performed practice of any physical exercises to avoid confusion bias in the intervention; who did not complete all stages of the study; were not present in 75% of the prescribed classes.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Balance. Verified through the Mini-BESTest test translated and validated in Brazil, it is a 14-item test that focuses on dynamic balance, specifically early transitions, postural responses, sensory orientation, and dynamic gait. Its application takes 10 to 15 minutes and allows you to quickly and reliably track balance changes. Each item is scored from (0-2); A score of 0 indicates that a person is unable to perform the task while a score of 2 is normal. The best score is the maximum amount of points, 28 (MAIA et al., 2013). | — |

|---|---|
| Cardiorespiratory fitness Verified by ergospirometry, it will be used to conduct the submaximal exercise test where it will assess cardiorespiratory fitness, indicated for populations with Parkinson's disease (OLIVEIRA et al., 2013). Exhaled gases and flow volume will be collected during the test and analyzed by calibrated metabolic system (Quark CPET Ergo, Cosmed, Rome, Italy) to provide oxygen absorption measurements. The test will be terminated at the predetermined value.;Depressive symptoms and anxiety Verified through Beck Depression and Anxiety Inventory. It contains 21 objective multiple choice questions related to depressive symptoms such as hopelessness, irritation, cognition, guilt and feelings of punishment, as well as physical symptoms such as fatigue, weight loss and sexual interest. It is composed of 21 self-reported questions that highlight somatic, affective and cognitive signs of anxiety symptoms.;Mood The Brunel Mood Scale (BRUMS) will be used to assess six states of mood (tension, depression, anger, vigor, fatigue and mental confusion). The questionnaire consists of 24 five-level scales (0 = nothing and 4 = extremely), which must be answered by the participant considering how he feels at the time of the assessment. With the sum of the answers related to each aspect, a score is obtained that varies from 0 to 16 for each mood state. BRUMS was validated for Brazil, with internal consistency values (Cronbach's alpha) greater than 0.70 for all aspects (TERRY; LANE; FOGARTY, 2003);Finutude The Sheppard Inventory, adapted for Portuguese and validated by Neri (1991), will be used to analyze the finitude of individuals with PD. The instrument consists of 20 questions divided into 4 subgroups, which allow to assess the respondent's opinion regarding: a) the possibility of being happy in old age; b) if old age foreshadows dependency, death and loneliness; c) whether it is better to die early than to feel the anguish and loneliness of old age; d) if | — |
