This study is a clinical trial that evaluates the best treatment option using a strength training protocol and an endurance training protocol in patients with lower limb amputations who use prostheses. The protocol consists of 6 weeks of strength training and 6 weeks of endurance training, with a 1-month washout period between the two.
The assessments in this study focus primarily on strength, using a dynamometer and the 5 RM, functionality, using the AMP scale, mobility, using the TugTest, quality of life, using the WHOQOL-BREF, and perception of change, using the GROC.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Muscle strength training | Experimental | Strength training lasts six weeks, during which submaximal strength percentages ranging from 75% to 90% are worked on. It is performed three times a week and follows a protocol consisting of progressive exercises for the large functional muscle groups relevant to the population being trained. |
|
| Endurance training | Active Comparator | Resistance training will be carried out for 6 weeks, 3 times a week, with exercises prescribed by a protocol with training characteristics defined by bibliography found in the ACSM. |

| Muscle strengh training | Other | Strength training lasts six weeks, during which submaximal strength percentages ranging from 75% to 90% are worked on. It is performed three times a week and follows a protocol consisting of progressive exercises for the large functional muscle groups relevant to the population being trained. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Changes in Funcionality | It is assessed using the TUG test, which requires patients to get up from a chair, walk 3 meters, turn around, walk back to the chair, and sit down again. Patients will receive the following instructions: "Get up on the word 'go,' walk to the tape, turn around, walk back to the chair, and sit down." | day 1, day 18 (last day of week 6), day 1 (after the wash out) and day 24. |
| Changes in quality of life | It is assessed using a self-administered questionnaire called WHOQOL-BREF, which provides a profile of the person's perceived quality of life. | day 1, day 18 (last day of week 6), day 1 (after the wash out) and day 24. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Changes in Maximum isometric muscle strength | It is evaluated using a dynamometer, in which three measurements are taken for each designated movement and the average of the maximum force and peak force is calculated. | day 1, day 18 (last day of week 6), day 1 (after the wash out) and day 24. |
| Changes on Movility |
