ROSSATO, Mateus et al. Effects of a combined training of strength and endurance on body components of women on perimenopause stage . Rev. Port. Cien. Desp. [online]. 2007, vol.7, n.1, pp.92-99. ISSN 1645-0523.

The purpose of this study was to verify the effects of strength and endurance training on body components in women. Eight women at perimenopause stage (age of 48.6 ± 2.1 years; body mass of 58.9 ± 9.3 kg; height of 159 ± 7 cm) volunteered for this study. The bone mass (BM), fat mass (FM) and lean mass (LM) were analyzed by a DEXA (Dual Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry), and the VO2max was determined by progressive maximal tests in a treadmill before and after the training period. The strength and endurance training had duration of 20 weeks. We didn’t find statistical differences for the VO2max, however presented an increase of 7.23% for absolute and 9.82 for relative values. The BM had an increase of 0.81%, while the LM had an increase of 2.82%. The FM was decreased in 3.60%. Although the alterations did not reach a statistical significance, the tendency observed suggest that training can induce changes on the body components of women at perimenopause stage. However, to confirm this found is necessary the application of a larger training period.
