RESUMO:

Introduction: The aging process is inevitable but varies from individual to individual the effects caused by it, it is known that active aging slows down the degenerative effects caused by the advancement of age, so depending on the level and type of activity practiced over Of time there are changes in motor and cognitive performances compared to the elderly who do not have an active and healthy lifestyle. In search of knowing more about which type of activity it improves even more these performances in active elderly, it proposed three different sessions and one moment control for analysis. Objective: To analyze the acute effects of different sessions on functional capacity in active elderly women. Methods: A randomized controlled trial with a crossover design, where each subject will undergo three sessions and one control moment, the first session will be with dual task exercise with stimulation based on motor learning (new movements) in the aquatic environment, the second with automated exercise (Standardized movement) in the aquatic environment, and the third session with only cognitive (Audiovisual) stimulation in the laboratory, to analyze the effect on gait performance and executive function, through the Test to get up and walk in different situations in the platform Walking and neuropsychological tests for executive function. Results: The data were normal and verified by the Shapiro-Wilk test. The data were expressed in median and 25th and 75th percentiles. Friedman test was applied to compare the absolute change values (Δ = post - pre) of each dependent variable between the exercise sessions. Wilcoxon test was used in the intra-condition comparison of each dependent variable. The size of the effect was calculated by the following formula: [z / √ n]. The level of statistical significance was set at p <0.05. Statistical procedures were performed using SPSS for Win / v.22.0 (Statistical Package for Social Sciences, Chicago, IL, USA). There was no significant difference between the sessions regarding gait performance and executive function, but an improvement after the interventions was observed. Conclusion: The results of the study demonstrated that the dual-task protocol presented a potential positive effect on the improvement of motor-cognitive performance and cognitive functions in active elderly, related to the aspect of mobility and cognitive aspect. Thus, it is suggested to encourage the addition of exercises with other dual task tasks in clinical practice and regular physical activity practices as a way to improve functional performance and prevent possible accidents in active elderly.
