The study aimed to verify and compare the effects of controlled strength training (TF) with antagonistic muscle pre-activation, during 16 sessions, on the muscle strength of lower limbs and on functional performance in sedentary elderly people. 56 elderly people of both sexes were selected, with a mean of 66.5 ± 4.5 years. Participants were divided into 3 groups: TF1 n = 17, TF2 n = 18 and CG n = 21. The body mass index (BMI), fat percentage (% F) and the strength tests of 1 maximum repetition of the femoral quadriceps (FQF), sitting and standing on the chair, the Timed Up and Go (TUG) and the six-minute walk. The study demonstrated that the 1RM test did not find any statistically significant intergroup differences in the pre-intervention moment, however, in the post-intervention moment, significant intergroup statistical differences were found. In the 1RM test when compared to the CG (TF1 pre vs TF1 post - T = -3.746, p <0.001; TF2 pre vs TF2 post - T = -3.537, p <0.001; GC pre and GC post - T = -3.753, p <0.001). There was a statistically significant difference between the TF2 and GC TF2 and GC groups (H (2) = 6.276, p = 0.04 | U = 96.5; z = -2.410, p = 0.016). For the test to sit and reach, (TF1 pre vs TF1 post - T = -3.337, p <0.001); TF2pre vs TF2post - T = -2.442, p = 0.015); GC pre vs GC post - T = -2.935, p = 0.003). For the 6-minute test, in the intergroup analysis, the groups showed statistically significant differences in the pre-intervention moment. Strength training with antagonistic muscle pre-activation in the elderly improves muscle strength and funcional perfomace.
