Interventions

BEHAVIORALExercise

The experimental group will undergo an exercise program using the Recovery App. Participants will receive guidance from researchers about the functionality of the app. The Recovery App includes flexibility, strength, and aerobic training exercises, aiming for a progressive intensity and volume over the weeks.

BEHAVIORALControl

They will receive an exercise booklet based on the Brazilian Physical Activity Recommendations (MINISTRY OF HEALTH, 2021), which recommend 150 minutes of physical activity for adults and seniors.
