Overview
Brief Summary
The goal of this randomized controlled clinical trial is to identify and compare the impacts of traditional concurrent training and concurrent training consisting of strength training combined with dance classes on functional performance, cognitive function and quality of life in older people. The main question it aims to answer are:
• The concurrent training consisting of strength training combined with dance classes can provide similar benefits to traditional concurrent training in neuromuscular and cardiorrespiratory performance, cognitive function and quality of life in older people?
Participants will training one of the two types of concurrent training (traditional concurrent training or concurrent training consisting of strength training combined with dance classes), two times a week, over 12 weeks.
Researchers will compare traditional concurrent training, concurrent training consisting of strength training combined with dance classes and a control group without exercise to see if this modalitys of physical exercise can provide increases in neuromuscular and cardiorrespiratory performance, cognitive function and quality of life in older people.
