Changes in body mass index and skinfold thickness were estimated through height, weight, and anthropometric measurements. The program comprised Pilates exercises for upper- and lower-body strength, agility, and aerobic capacity.Results: Fat mass (FM) improved significantly (pre-test, 32.89%, 8.65; post-test, 28.25%, 6.58; P<0.01). Bone diameters and muscle perimeters showed no significant changes pre- and post-test (P>0.05), but there was a higher correlation between FM (%) and waist–hip ratio (rho, 0.80; P<0.01).Conclusion: A mixed program of aerobics and Pilates, controls and improves baseline muscle mass and decreases FM values, without causing deterioration during practice and follow-up exercises.Keywords: lean body mass, anthropometric measures, educative programA Letter to the Editor has been received and published for this article.Ruiz-Montero PJCastillo-Rodriguez AMikalački MNebojsa ČKorovljev DDove Medical Pressarticlefat masslean body massanthropometric measureseducative programPilatesaerobic.GeriatricsRC952-954.6ENClinical Interventions in Aging, Vol Volume 9, Pp 243-248 (2014) |
