Multicomponent Training Protocol

"Each session consists of:~Warm-up (10 minutes): Low-intensity walking (Borg scale 10-11) to increase heart rate, improve blood flow, and prepare joints.~Main phase (40 minutes):~Aerobic exercises: Controlled jumping jacks, step-ups, alternating knee lifts, lateral steps, and leg lifts.~Mobility exercises: Thoracic extensions, cat-to-cows, overhead stretching with a stick, and hip internal rotations (1-3 sets, 30-60 seconds per exercise).~Resistance training: Gradual progression of 8 exercises targeting major muscle groups, such as squats, bicep curls, shoulder presses, and rows (1-3 sets, 10-15 reps, RPE 13-15).~Cool-down (10 minutes): Breathing exercises and stretching (1-3 sets, 10-30 seconds per stretch)."

Aerobic Training Protocol

"Each training session will include an initial 10-minute muscle activation phase (low-intensity walking, Borg = 10-11) to increase heart rate, improve muscle blood flow, and prepare the major joints for the next work phase.~main exercise period (40-minute):~25 minutes of progressive aerobic exercises (controlled and rhythmic jumping jacks, step-ups on a sturdy platform (such as a low step or stable surface), standing knee raises (alternating legs), fast side steps or side leg raises).~15 minutes of walking, exercises will be performed at an intensity to ensure that perceived exertion (RPE) will remain between 13 and 15 points on the Borg Scale (6-20). Progression over the weeks will be by maintaining intensity in this range.~Cool down period: breathing and stretching exercises on all major muscle groups."
