Summary

Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons, which results in a range of motor symptoms such as tremor, rigidity, and bradykinesia, as well as non-motor symptoms including anxiety, depression, and cognitive decline. Strength training has emerged as a promising intervention to improve motor function and influence biochemical markers associated with oxidative stress and neurodegeneration. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a structured strength training protocol over 12 weeks in improving both functional and biochemical outcomes in patients with PD.

Interventions

OTHER

strength training

An intervention based on the application of a strength training protocol for multi-joint and single-joint muscles will be implemented, performed with a slow-moderate execution speed. This intervention will be carried out over 12 weeks, with a total of 24 sessions (2 sessions per week), each lasting 45 minutes. In all of these sessions, free weights will be used, performing three sets at 60-80% of 1RM for 8-12 repetitions. The exercise protocol will include: * Squats * Deadlifts * Rows * Bicep curls * Bench press * Shoulder press Each set will be performed to muscular failure, progressing in the number of repetitions (from 8 to 12). Once 12 repetitions are reached, the load volume will be increased by adding 5% to the weight.
