COMPARATIVE STUDY

Fitness for elders: a comparison between practioners and non-practioners of exercise.
Age (2005-) 2015 June
The aim of this study was to investigate the level of fitness of older people with more than sixty (60) years of age, practicing physical exercise over non-practitioners. The elderly from Santa Fe High (Alta Santa Fe), located in Nova Santa Rosa-Paraná, with 60 individuals, practitioners and non-practitioners of physical activity have participated in the evaluation of physical fitness including tests such as balance, flexibility, and muscle strength. We were unable to detect significant differences between groups of practitioners and non-practitioners of exercise for this study. The physical activity program conducted with this population may still be beneficial for various social and emotional needs but falls short in maintaining physical fitness in these individuals.
