Inactivity has been associated with decreased quality of life of older people, and many physical activity programs are encouraged. However, the heterogeneity of the different exercise programs available is well recognized. The objective was to compare three physical activity programs (strength training, aqua fitness, and aerobic exercise) to discern the differences in the benefits achieved by each of them in older women over a period of 6 months. For that, a double-blind randomized trial sorted 347 women over 50 years old into three groups of exercise programs; they completed three sessions of evaluation that included the measurement of weight and body mass index and used the Senior Fitness Test (SFT) and SF-12 questionnaire. A -test for related samples compared the evolution of each group, and ANOVA statistic was used to compare the effect of the different exercise programs. The results showed that women should consider performing aerobic activity up to age 60. After that age, aerobic activity or strength training can provide greater benefits.
缺乏运动与老年人生活质量下降有关，因此鼓励开展许多体育活动项目。然而，人们普遍认识到现有不同锻炼项目的异质性。目的是比较三种体育活动项目（力量训练、水中健身和有氧运动），以了解在6个月的时间里，它们各自给老年女性带来的益处有何不同。为此，一项双盲随机试验将347名50岁以上的女性分为三组锻炼项目组；她们完成了三次评估，包括体重和身体质量指数的测量，并使用了老年人健身测试（SFT）和SF - 12问卷。相关样本的t检验比较了每组的变化情况，方差分析统计用于比较不同锻炼项目的效果。结果表明，60岁之前的女性应考虑进行有氧运动。60岁之后，有氧运动或力量训练可能会带来更大益处。
