Both groups conduct supervised exercise programs 2 times a week for a period of 12 weeks. The evaluation instruments used in an EVA (visual pain scale); FIQ Questionnaire - Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire; Functional ability by the "Timed Up and Go" test and 6-minute walk test; A quality of sleep by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI-BR) and an ESS-BR (Epworth Sleepiness Scale); Finally, a general quality of life for the SF-36.
