Results: The first study only one test show significant differences (p=0.001) the second paper, two test showed improvements in the strength (sit down and get up), (p=0.022) and their flexibilities (p=0.046), other study the strength in lower limbs was modified in a positive way (p=0.001), the same way the flexibility in arms (p=0.001)
Conclusion: The results show an improve in some physical capacities in elderly people, but not in all, for that reason is recommended longitudinal studies with major homogeneity
