Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
It is expected that the groups that receive neuromuscular electrostimulation and lumbopelvic stabilization training show an increase in trunk extension strength, verified in the isometric strength and resistance test in extension, when compared to the groups that do not receive the stimulus.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
It is expected that the groups that receive neuromuscular electrostimulation and lumbopelvic stabilization training present a decrease in low back pain, identified by the intensity of pain measured by the visual analogue scale, when compared to the groups that do not receive the stimulus.;It is expected that the groups that receive neuromuscular electrical stimulation and lumbopelvic stabilization training show improvements in biopsychosocial and functional aspects, quantified by the STarT Back Screening Tool” questionnaire, when compared to the groups that do not receive the stimulus.
