Weekly Pilates sessions, guided by a specialized physiotherapist. The duration of the treatment was 10 weeks, and each session lasted 45 to 50 minutes. All subjects received instruction to perform specific daily home exercises.

For also 10 weeks, the participants went trough anal electrical stimulation associated with Pelvic Floor Muscle Training, supervised by a specialized physiotherapist. All subjects received orientation to perform the same pelvic floor exercises at home.

PILATES

PFMT and AES

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy between a Pilates exercise program and a Pelvic Floor Muscle Training (PFMT) protocol combined with anal electrical stimulation (AES) in the recovery of urinary continence (UI) after radical prostatectomy.

There are no studies that evaluate Pilates mat exercises for incontinence in men although it can be assured that this method has the pelvic floor contractions as a principle for practice. If this new therapeutic approach proves to be as effective as described treatment in improving urinary complaints, it will be an option for patients who prefer a non-invasive treatment.

This randomized clinical trial includes 69 individuals with urinary incontinence one month after radical prostatectomy. One physiotherapist, with experience in urogynecology, was responsible for all the assessments. Urinary frequency, nocturia, 24-hour pad test, number of pads used per day, and the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire - Short Form (ICIQ-SF) were the variables evaluated.

The subjects were allocated in one of two treatment groups (G1: Pilates; G2: anal electrical stimulation combined with pelvic floor muscle training). Volunteers participated of 10 sessions of the corresponding treatment and were reassessed objectively by the number of pads used per day, and subjectively with the score of quality of life.

Breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancer in Brazil, and its treatment, namely surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy or hormone therapy, has consequences and side effects that significantly affect the quality of life and associated physical and psychological factors. The practice of physical activity, in turn, may play a beneficial role in these factors, and help the recovery of the patient in relation to the consequences of the treatments. Two types of physical activity can be addressed in the context of breast cancer; Dance and the Pilates method. Thus, the objective of the present study will be to analyze the impact of Pilates practice and dance on quality of life and on psychological and physical factors in patients undergoing adjuvant treatment of breast cancer. Patients older than 18 years who are in adjuvant treatment, namely, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and / or hormone therapy at the Oncology Research Center - CEPON, will be invited to be part of the study. With a randomized clinical trial of three arms, the patients will be submitted to 16 weeks of intervention, and randomized in 3 groups: (A) belly dance protocol group; (B) Pilates method protocol group, and (C) control group who will continue with their routine activities. Sample randomization will be conducted in confidence by one of the researchers in a specific computer program. Information about personal and clinical characteristics, quality of life, psychological factors (depressive symptoms, body image, self-esteem, optimism, perceived stress, fatigue, pain, sexual function and sleep quality) and physical factors (cardiorespiratory fitness, balance , Posture, upper limb functionality and presence of lymphedema). All information will be collected before and after the intervention period. Statistical analysis will use the statistical package SPSS - IBM, version 20.0. Firstly, descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation and percentage) will be used in order to know the data, and then the Anova two way test with repeated measurements and Sydak Comparison Test, in order to analyze the data. Groups of the Pilates method, of the dance and control group. Significance level of 5%.

The MoveMama Project includes two protocols: (1) Dance and (2) Pilates. Each session for each modality will last 60 minutes, three times a week, for 16 weeks.

In both groups, a chart of patient evolution will be developed during the protocol, which should be updated every week by the researchers responsible for the intervention. In order to control the intensity and safety of the practice of physical activity, since they are about patients who are in period of clinical adjuvant treatment. In this way, the blood pressure (BP), through a sphygmomanometer, and the investigation of the heart rate (HR) will be performed in every first class of the week at the beginning and end of the session.

The Subjective Effort Perception Scale - Borg Scale 6-20 points (BORG, 2000) will also be used to evaluate the intensity and / or discomfort during physical activity practice in both protocols. This 6 to 20-point scale can be used efficiently because of its relationship to heart rate. It should be applied to describe resting sensations to situations of maximum physical effort, considering number six equivalent to 60 bpm (beats per minute), as well as number 20 to 200 bpm (Table 2) (FOSS et al., 2000).

In both modalities of intervention, the evolution of the movements of upper limbs will always be respecting the limit of each patient.

The dance protocol (1) will be performed through the belly dance method. This type of methodology was selected, because it is a practice that involves an intimate relationship between movement and emotion, awakens a spontaneous body language that privileges movements that respect the individuality of each practitioner, for the recovery of the feminine identity, and for be a practice that proposes intense movements of the upper limbs, benefiting patients directly.

Classes will proceed in the following order: (a) Initial stretching: The sequence of movements lesson will span wide to specific joint movements, including flexion, extension, abduction, adduction and rotation, initiated by the upper body until reaching the lower limbs, with an expected duration of 10 minutes. (b) Main part: brief explanations about the purpose of the lesson, that is, the theory of dance or the specific step to be worked, followed by the practical part of teaching the technique. The purpose of this moment will be to develop in the students the movements of the belly dance technique, stimulating the motor coordination, the rhythm and the corporal consciousness, improving aspects of the flexibility and the range of movement of the upper limb. The practice of the movements will be explored in individual dynamics, in double or in group, involving the movement according to the rhythm of the music, or also, by rhythms stipulated by the students. This class session will last an average of 40 minutes. (c) Relaxation: Developed from slow-moving practices. With normalization of cardiac frequency, this part will last 10 minutes. Finally, at the end of each class, a brief discussion will be carried out on each student's perception of the contents given, and in relation to the objectives discussed at the beginning of the lesson, whether they were reached or not.

The Pilates protocol (2) will proceed in the following order: (a) Initial stretching: The breathig, imprint \& release, hip release, spinal rotation, cat stretch, hip rolls, scapula isolation, arm circles, head nods and elevation \& depression of scapulae exercises will be performed during warm-up in all sessions, then in the 10th session Added theraband, tonning ball and ball, intensifying the exercises. Duration of 10 minutes. (b) Main part: brief explanations about the purpose of the lesson, the theory of Pilates, the basic principles of Joseph Pilates: breathing, centering, control, precision, fluency and concentration. Clarify the positions: positioning of the pelvis, positioning of the rib cage, stabilization and movement of the shoulder girdle and positioning of the head and cervical spine. This part will include the specific exercises in Pilates. The practice of the movements will be explored in individual dynamics. This class session will last an average of 40 minutes. (c) Relaxation: The relaxation will consist of the exercises: sitting on the ball, sitting on the spine stretch forward ball, sitting on the self-stretching ball of the cervical muscles (Upper Trapezius and Muscle Scalene muscles) and active mobilization of the cervical spine during the 48 sessions. Duration of 10 minutes.

A randomized clinical trial, three-arm study (group 1 - Dance; group 2 - Pilates and group 3 - Control), single-blinded.

Bilateral arm volume was measured with the upper extremity volumetric cup.Participants submerged their arm and hand into a water-filled column up to their axilla, and the volume of displaced water was recorded. Due to differences in volumetric measurement between both arms, it will be recorded.

Muscle endurance will be evaluated by isokinetic dynamometer.For the extremity to be tested in the supine position, when the shoulder is in 90° abduction and the elbow is 90° flexed, the isokinetic force measurements of the shoulder internal and external rotation movements will be performed with an angular velocity of 240° / s at 15 repetitions.

muscle strength will be evaluated by isokinetic dynamometer.For the extremity to be tested in the supine position, when the shoulder is in 90° abduction and the elbow is 90° flexed, the isokinetic force measurements of the shoulder internal and external rotation movements will be performed with an angular velocity of 180° / s at 5 repetitions.

upper extremity proprioceptionuwill be evaluated by isokinetic dynamometer. Proprioception tests were performed during active joint position sense, passive joint position sense and kinesthesia.

While the individuals are lying on their back, the shoulder will be positioned in 90° abduction in the coronal plane and the elbow in 90° flexion and fixed at the level of the chest and ankle. proprioception test, subjects were testedwhile lay comfortably down an adjustable bed. To eliminate visual clues and ears closed with headphones to all subjects were blindfolded.shoulder active joint position sense, passive joint position sense and kinesthesia test measurements of 0-45° external rotation movements will be performed with the shoulder in of 90° abduction and the elbow 90° in flexion positıon, with to be 3 repetitions. A pressure splint will be worn to prevent sensory input to the skin in passive joint position sense.

to evaluate upper extremity functions will be done DASH questionnaire.This survey is a disability and symptom scale that evaluates the upper extremity functions in the last week. It contains 30 items regarding symptoms and daily life activities. 21 items provide information about levels of difficulties experienced with the shoulder, arm and hand while carrying out different physical activities, 5 items provide information about pain, tingling, weakness and stiffness during physical activities of differing intensity, and 4 items provide information about social activities, occupation and sleeping disorders. DASH survey scores an a 5-point likert scale and total scores changes in the range of 0-100. It is completed in about 5-7 minutes. The score. A higher score indicates more disabilities and symptoms.

to evaluate Quality of Life Questionnaire will be done EORTC QLQ-BR23. It is a 4-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (not at all) to 4 (very much). The total high scores obtained from the QLQ-BR 23 questionnaire with which patients' quality of daily lives is analyzed indicate difficulties in performing daily living activities, functional activities and reduction in the quality of life.
