BEHAVIORAL

Active retirement

During the intervention, the sensorimotor training program will have a progressive increase in load, the exercises will be divided into 3 levels of intensity: easy (without external load, during the first 8 weeks), intermediate (application of external load: elastic bands, shin guards and free weights, from the 9th to the 16th week) and advanced (increased external load compared to the previous level, from the 17th to the 24th week). During the sessions we will still assess the intensity through the subjective perception of effort (RPE) scale. In addition, adherence and control of the level of control through the Physical Activity Enjoyment (PACES) survey applied to participants.
