Summary

Older people have been one of the most affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. Restrictive measures to prevent the spread of the virus have affected the lifestyle of older people, which have reduced their level of physical activity. A sedentary lifestyle has negative health consequences, such as increased frailty and decreased functional capacity. The aim of the study is to apply a program of therapeutic exercise in outdoor fitness parks to prevent the complications of sedentary lifestyle. Community-dwelling older adults belonging will participate in an outdoor program to keep security measures and prevent contagion.

PReGe

There will be two weekly sessions of 45 minutes, outdoors in outdoor fitness parks. The components of balance, gait, resistance, strength and elasticity will be worked on and breathing exercises will be performed. The sessions will be guided and dosed by physiotherapists, considering the level of perception of effort. Indications will be given to carry out other sessions of 60 to 120 minutes of therapeutic walking (minimum speed of 4 km/hour) during the week, to complete the 150-300 minutes per week of physical activity recommended by the WHO.
