Resumen

El objetivo principal de este estudio fue evaluar la incidencia del programa de intervención física de calidad de vida relacionada con la de un conjunto de pruebas físicas que determinan la condición física de los adultos. 128 adultos, de edades comprendidas entre los 50-70 años de edad, participaron en un programa de entrenamiento combinado, 3 sesiones por semana (dos ejercicios de aptitud física y una piscina), durante un período de 9 meses. Su estado físico fue evaluada al principio y al final del estudio de la prueba de condición física superior (SFT). Los resultados muestran mejoras significativas en los parámetros de resistencia de las piernas y los brazos (p <0,01) y en el rango de movimiento en los hombros y el tronco (p <0,05), no se encontraron diferencias significativas en las pruebas de agilidad y resistencia. Estos resultados sugieren que la participación en los programas de ejercicios físicos regulares, la capacitación tanto aeróbica y la fuerza provoca una serie de respuestas favorables que contribuyen a un envejecimiento saludable y puede desempeñar un papel en la prevención o reducción de la disminución funcional en los adultos mayores.
