Resumo: The aim of this study was to evaluate the functional performance, according to the physical activity levels, of the students of UnATI EACH-USP. The study included 269 subjects, of both sexes, aged between 50 and 80 years-old. The most active group showed better functional performance in balance, mobility and lower limb strength tests compared with the sedentary group. On the other hand, perform physical activities in an irregular fashion was not associated to better functional performance in middleaged/older subjects.

Participaram do estudo 269 indivíduos, de ambos os sexos, com idade entre 50 e 80 anos. O grupo mais ativo apresentou melhor desempenho físico-funcional nos testes de equilíbrio, mobilidade e força de membros inferiores comparativamente ao grupo sedentário. Por outro lado, realizar atividades de maneira irregular não esteve associado a vantagens no desempenho físico-funcional de indivíduos de meia-idade/idosos.Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2013-05-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairos/article/view/1524710.23925/2176-901X.2012v15iEspecial14p129-154Revista Kairós-Gerontologia; v. 15 (2012): Número Especial 14 - Universidade Aberta à Terceira Idade e Velhice; 129-1542176-901X1516-2567reponame:Revista Kairós (Online)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)instacron:PUC_SPporhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairos/article/view/15247/11373Melo, Ruth Caldeira deSantos, Carolina Carneiro das NevesYassuda, Mônica SanchesBatistoni, Samila SathlerDomingues, Marisa AcciolyLopes, AndreaCachioni, Meireinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2019-11-29T00:32:54Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/15247Revistahttp://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairosPRIhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/kairos/oaikairos@pucsp.br||flalodo@terra.com.br|| contato@openjournalsolutions.com.br2176-901X1516-2567opendoar:2019-11-29T00:32:54Revista Kairós (Online) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)false
