Intervention
The intervention programme lasted eight weeks,
with a frequency of two sessions per week (total of
16 sessions), 60 minutes a day. The programme was
supervised by the lead researcher, a physiotherapist,
and participants were instructed to report any complaints,
related or not to the exercises. All groups
were instructed not to participate in any other formal
physical activity during the duration of the study
and not to conduct exercises while in their homes.
