Summary

The aim of this study is to understand the effect of adapted functional training on the physical fitness, functionality and quality of life of individuals with SCI after social distancing due to COVID-19. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are:

* Are the participants of the functional training program adapted for people with spinal cord injury show better results in functional capacity in post-test evaluations training period, when compared to your results in the functional training pré-period?
* Is adapted functional training capable of improving cardiorespiratory fitness, muscular strength and body composition?
* Can the perception of quality of life be influenced by functional training?

Participants will be evaluated through questionnaires and field tests, such as:

* Functional Capacity (battery of motor tests related to functional independence and Motor Assessment Scale),
* Physical fitness (handgrip test; medicine ball throw; Illinois agility and 12-minute displacement) and Quality of Life (WHOQOL-DIS).

Functional Training

Functional training was performed for eigth weeks. The group participated on the supervised training once a week and twice a week at home. The training was arranged in a circuit method, consisting of three to four blocks with two to three exercises each, with an execution time of two minutes and recovery of thirty seconds between exercises and one minute between each block. The exercises emphasized integrated, functional and multi-joint movements for mobility, flexibility, strength, power and muscular endurance with overload, as well as agility, speed and balance exercises.
