Multi component program
The intervention lasted 16 weeks, with the evaluations carried out at baseline, after 8 weeks and at the end.
The multi-component exercise program took place in day centers or collective residences. It was supervised by physiotherapists. The classes took place 3 times a week, at the same hour and on alternate days, for 45-60 minutes, for a total of 48 sessions. The program consisted on a warm-up (5 min) with exercises and walking, a balance and strength training (35-40 min) with exercises repeated 3 times and held for 15 seconds flexibility / relaxation (5 to 10 mins) periods. The strength training is performed with the resistance of the body weight or accessible and low cost equipment, with two series of 10 to 15 repetitions, after maximum resistance was calculated.
The flexibility and cooling training consists of 3 repetitions maintained for 15 seconds.
