Original description

Preference of Women With Fibromyalgia Undergoing a Three Different Volumes of Resistance Training: Clinical Trial Randomized Crossover

Fibromyalgia is a painful syndrome of unknown etiology, which affects 2% of world population, with symptoms such as: pain, unrefreshing sleep, fatigue and mood disorders. It is already established in the literature that resistance training is part of the non- pharmacological treatment for patients with fibromyalgia. The big gap is about the quantity adequate and/or recommended exercise volume, despite some studies with exercise volumes different resistance trainings show improvements, we do not have a direction, besides We still do not know whether there is a preference for these patients in different resistance training volumes.

Inclusion: Women aged 18 to 65; Have a diagnosis of fibromyalgia according to the ACR 2016 criteria.

Exclusion: Having another associated rheumatic condition; Have heart problems that prevent maximal efforts and submaximums; Have performed resistance training in the last 6 months; Have a trip or appointment scheduled that requires absence for the next 4 (four) weeks from the start of the survey; Women with musculoskeletal injuries in the upper and/or lower limbs.
