| Resumo: | The multicomponent training seems to positively influence elderly’s physical fitness. It is unclear the effects of this type of training with less intervention time in strength levels. Thus, the aim of this study was to assess the effects of a multicomponent training program with four months in elderly’s strength levels. The sample of this study was composed by 30 subjects with 69.30 (± 5.45) years old and 71.80 (± 8.97) Kg. Body weight was assessed with a bioimpedance balance. The knee flection and extension, arm curl and abduction were assessed with a strain gauge in kilograms of force (Kgf). There were no significant differences between the two moments. However, the mean body weight, knee flection and extension strength levels increased. A four months multicomponent training program seem to be insufficient to improve strength levels in elderlies. |
