About
The aim is quantify, correlate and establish the diagnostic and prognostic value of the variation of the image biomarkers obtained by magnetic resonance (muscle volume, morphological, biochemical and structural biomarkers) longitudinally in fragile or pre-frail elders with sarcopenia after a mixed physical training of strength and myofascial self-conditioning. This project is based on an, longitudinal, prospective, controlled, randomized, intervention study and blind for the researchers responsible for the study. 60 elderly with sarcopenia and frailty (Intervention Group, n=30; Control Group, n=30) will participate in the study. Intervention Group participants will perform 6-months mixed exercise program consisting in high-intensity strength training and self-myofascial conditioning. Data will be take trough 2 measurements that will be take place at baseline and post-intervention. Criteria of frailty, criteria of sarcopenia, sociodemographic, clinics, kinanthropometric, functional, nutritional and confusing variables will be evaluated. Moreover, magnetic resonance images will be performed to obtain muscle volume, morphological, biochemical and structural biomarkers.
