Study Groups

Speed TT
Walk on treadmill with progressive increases in speed
Walking on treadmill
3 sessions/week, 24 weeks. The heart rate does not exceed 75% of maximum heart rate (220-age) of the participant and that blood pressure does not exceed 250/115 mmHg. During the first week, the TT velocity was adjusted to 80% of preferential walking speed of the participant. The following week, the participant was encouraged to reach 90% and 100% in the third week. From the fourth week, subjects in the Speed TT had an increase in speed, depending on exercise tolerance of each participant. The TT velocity was increased by 0,2 km/h when the participant reached criteria.
Mixed TT
Walk on treadmill with progressive increases in speed and incline
Walking on treadmill
3 sessions/week, 24 weeks. The heart rate does not exceed 75% of maximum heart rate (220-age) of the participant and that blood pressure does not exceed 250/115 mmHg. During the first week, the TT velocity was adjusted to 80% of preferential walking speed of the participant. The following week, the participant was encouraged to reach 90% and 100% in the third week. From the fourth week, the TT velocity was increased by 0,2 km/h or the incline of the walking surface of TT was increased by 1% alternately when the progression criteria were met.
Control
Light-intensity exercise group, work flexibility and coordination
Control group
Training of the control group was characterized by light intensity exercises. For the first three months, participants performed regular exercise involving full range of motion to enhance their flexibility. For the last three months of the training programme, participants learned elements of Tai Chi and rhythmic movements of latin dance. Participants attended two 1-h supervised sessions per week and were asked to perform each week a third session at home, based on instructions in a document offered to the control group participants
