Resumo: Aging is a natural and irreversible process that causes autonomy and functional capacity reduction. Regular physical exercise, besides curbing the sedentary lifestyle, promote maintenance of the functional capacities in elderly people. The aim of the present study was to compare the effect of exercise on functional abilities and physical fitness, comparing active and sedentary elderly. Eighty elderly people between 60 and 80 years old were evaluated with Physical Fitness Test for Elderly, this test measures the functional capacity of each person through functional fitness tests and physical parameters, on the other hand, are related to daily functions. Results showed a significant difference in upper and lower limb muscle strength, aerobic resistance, lower and upper limb flexibility, agility and dynamic balance, when compared active and sedentary elderly. It was concluded from these data that regular physical exercises improve and maintains functional capacity.

A prática regular de atividades físicas promove manutenção das capacidades funcionais do idoso. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi comparar a capacidade funcional e aptidão física, entre idosos ativos e sedentários. Foram avaliados 80 idosos com a idade média entre 60 e 80 anos, e o método de avaliação foi o Teste de Aptidão Física para Idosos (TAFI), que mensura a capacidade funcional do indivíduo através de testes de aptidão funcional e parâmetros físicos que estão relacionados às funções diárias. Através de todos os dados coletados pôde-se perceber uma diferença significativa na força muscular de membros superiores e inferiores, resistência aeróbica, flexibilidade de membros superiores, agilidade e equilíbrio dinâmico dos idosos ativos quando comparados aos idosos sedentários. Concluiu-se, a partir destes dados, que o exercício físico regular melhora a capacidade física dos idosos.Ponteditora2022-02-01info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdftext/xmlhttps://doi.org/10.29073/jim.v3i1.591https://doi.org/10.29073/jim.v3i1.591JIM – Journal of Medical Research; Vol. 3 No. 1 (2022): JIM - Jornal de Investigação Médica; 049-061JIM - Jornal de Investigação Médica ; Vol. 3 N.º 1 (2022): JIM - Jornal de Investigação Médica; 049-0612184-750910.29073/jim.v3i1reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://revistas.ponteditora.org/index.php/jim/article/view/591https://revistas.ponteditora.org/index.php/jim/article/view/591/378https://revistas.ponteditora.org/index.php/jim/article/view/591/379Direitos de Autor (c) 2022 JIM - Jornal de Investigação Médicainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMedeiros, IsabellaPereira, LucasPinto, VeronicaViana-Gomes, Diego2022-12-24T05:45:44Zoai:revistas.ponteditora.org:article/591Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T15:27:13.222707Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
