The viral infection derived from the SARS-Cov2 coronavirus leads to multisystem and highly propagated alterations that potentially compromise the quality of life of human beings. The objective of this research was focused on identifying changes in physical condition in a group of subjects diagnosed with post Covid19 after the application of a supervised physical exercise program. Quasi-experimental longitudinal cohort study with the participation of 20 subjects (12 men and 8 women), who were operated through a bioadaptation macrocycle for 3 months with 3 weekly work sessions. Aspects related to physical condition, anthropometric and basic hemodynamics were evaluated. Significant differences were obtained from baseline to the final phase for VO2max, maximum strength and endurance strength test, as well as flexibility with values of (p≤0.005). Physical exercise in this population showed positive changes in the cardiorespiratory fitness of the participants, having an important impact on the reduction of the sequelae generated by this pathology, and directly impacting on the quality of life and functionality.
Keywords: COVID-19, physical exercise, physical fitness.
