Resumo

O objetivo desta revisão é elucidar os benefícios do treinamento com pesos (TP) sobre quatro componentes da aptidão física (AF) fundamentais para a qualidade de vida de idosos: força, flexibilidade, equilíbrio e resistência aeróbia. Foi realizada pesquisa bibliográfica nas bases de dados PUBMED e LILACS. Foram selecionados estudos que incluíam no título os descritores: strength training, resistance training, strength, balance, flexibility, power, aerobic, older e elderly. Modificações na força muscular são observadas após poucas semanas de TP. Essa melhoria pode auxiliar não só na independência dos idosos, mas também na diminuição da incidência de quedas. Além disso, a prática sistematizada do TP promove melhoria na flexibilidade e na resistência aeróbia de idosos. As modificações no equilíbrio, após programas de TP, ainda não estão bem esclarecidas na literatura. Desta forma, o TP consiste numa importante ferramenta para a melhoria da AF de idosos, haja vista que promove adaptações na força muscular, flexibilidade e na resistência aeróbia.
