The objective of the study is to evaluate the impact of strength training on sleep apneas in the elderly. Individuals aged between 65 and 80 years and that presenting apnea-hypopnea index between 20 and 50 events per hour, measured by out-of-center portable polysomnography, will be recruited. Those included will be randomized to two groups: Intervention: consisted of 12 weeks, twice a week, of strength training; or control: consisted of lifestyle recommendations.
