Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The pre-frail elderly are a population more vulnerable to diminished functionality and future disabilities. Thus, interventions focused on the prevention of sarcopenia are indicated to prevent dysfunction in this population. This study aims to evaluate the effects of whole body vibration training associated with inspiratory muscle training on functional outcomes, balance and muscle metabolism in pre-frail elderly women.

WBV + IMT

Whole body vibration training associated with respiratory muscle training (WBV + IMT)

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

WBV + IMT

Intervention Type OTHER

The whole body vibration training will be performed through a vibrating platform with three axes and vibration frequency set at 35 Hz. The amplitude used will be 02 to 04 mm.The inspiratory muscle training will be performed through a device that provides inspiratory resistance.

WBV + IMTsham

Whole body vibration training associated with respiratory muscle training sham (WBV + IMTsham)

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

WBV + IMTsham

Intervention Type OTHER

The whole body vibration training will be performed through a vibrating platform with three axes and vibration frequency set at 35 Hz. The amplitude used will be 02 to 04 mm.The inspiratory muscle training sham will be performed through a device without inspiratory resistance.

WBVsham + IMTsham

Whole body vibration training sham associated with respiratory muscle training sham (WBVsham + IMTsham)

Group Type SHAM_COMPARATOR

WBVsham + IMTsham

Intervention Type OTHER

Whole body vibration training will be performed through a vibrating platform coupled to a device that generates non-therapeutic low frequency vibration. The simulation of inspiratory muscle training will be performed through a device with no inspiratory resistance.
