Summary

The study will include 60 patients awaiting bariatric surgery. They will be randomized into 2 groups, experimental and control. The intervention will take place 1 month after surgery, for a total of 16 weeks. Parameters of body composition, metabolic risk, quality of life, physical activity and sedentary behavior will be determined

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

EXPOBAR

Each session will start with 5 minutes of warm-up and finalization with 10 minutes of a cool-down, with work of flexibility and proprioception. The maintenance of balance and postural stability may be compromised in obese individuals, depending on the degree of obesity, although the support base provided by the position of the foot is proportional to the structural morphology of each subject. Flexibility is also gradually impaired in obese individuals and of course, these changes may be related to postural changes aggravated by a sedentary lifestyle and biological aging itself alongside all metabolic alterations inherent to the pathology of obesity (Benetti et al., 2016). And the warm-up and the cool-down will be developed as the component of training with the evolution by phases, both in time and in intensity. The first phase will include 20 minutes of interval training, encompassing circuit strength training. Each phase will have an increment of 10 minutes in the central block.
