EXPERIMENTAL: Pilates group
Pilates classes were held twice weekly for one hour.
The classes were divided into a warm-up, mat Pilates with accessories and a cool-down.
Participants used small items of equipment such as bands, circles or rings, blocks, spyke balls and foam rollers.
The intervention lasted 12 weeks; the classes were supervised twice a week.
The supervised exercises were evaluated every four weeks (frequency and intensity) focused on the lower limb (muscles related to gait), core and trunk (muscles related to posture).
The participants were asked to perform supplementary at-home workouts three times a week using a booklet and video that was provided to the participants.
The video and booklet to introduce the six principles of Pilates, warm-up exercises, exercises on the chair, mat Pilates exercises and cool-down exercises.
Participants were advised to perform these exercises three times a week for 30 minutes at home.

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Falls Efficacy Scale
Time Frame: up to 12 weeks
|
Participants should answer items thinking about how they usually do the activity and they should answer items to show how concerned they would be about falling: 1 = not at all concerned 2 = somewhat concerned 3 = fairly concerned 4 = very concerned.
Total score ranging from 16 (not at all) to 64 (very much).

The short International Physical Activity Questionnaire
Time Frame: Baseline, post-test 12 weeks
|
Measure daily physical activity such as leisure time, domestic and gardening (yard) activities, work-related and transport-related activities.
The total scores of walking; moderate, and vigorous-intensity activity described the overall level of activity in (METs) metabolic equivalent minutes per week, calculates as the MET intensity multiplied per min for each activity during the last seven days such as walking=3.3
METs, Moderate PA= 4.0 METs and Vigorous PA= 8.0 METs.
The total MET min/week = (walk MET*min*days) + (Mod MET*min*days) +Vig METs*min*days) (http://www.ipaq.ki.se).
