| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Control | No Intervention | Children who follow the recommendations of their pneumologist | |
| Experimental | Experimental | A two month intervention program 3 days/week will be carried out. The session will last ~60 minutes, and will consist of a combined training (aerobic training ~30 min, and strength ~30 min of 7 whole body exercises (3 sets x 10 repetitions).The load was gradually increased as the strength of each child improved, i.e., from 40% of five-repetition maximum (5RM) lifting ability at the start of the program to 60% of 5RM at the end of the program. All sessions were individually supervised by trained professionals. |
