Multicomponent physical exercise program

The intervention consists of a combined multicomponent exercise program (EP) carried out for 6 months that includes strength, balance, flexibility and functional exercises aimed to improve functioning on daily life activities. The EP will be divided into two parts: The first 3 months the EP aims to restore the physical condition through the multicomponent exercise program. This program will comprise of upper and lower body strengthening exercises, using external weights for 2-3sets of 8-12repetitions at a progressive intensity of 30-50% of 1RM. In addition, static balance and flexibility exercise will be performed. From 3th to 6th months, the objective will be to improve autonomy through the functional EP. Strength exercises intensity will be increased to 60-70% of 1-RM, 2-3sets of 8-12repetitions. Attention tasks, temporal space dissociation and dynamic balance exercises will be added to increase the intensity in balance exercises. Flexibility and fine handle will be also performed
