The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of a Clinical Pilates-based exercise programme on chest mobility, lung function, motor performance, physical activity levels, sleep quality and Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) in individuals with Gold A COPD. Based on our research question, 'What is the effect of a Clinical Pilates programme on thoracic mobility, pulmonary function, motor performance, physical activity levels, sleep quality, and HRQoL in people with Gold A COPD?', we propose the following research hypotheses:
H1: The Clinical Pilates programme contributed to improved thoracic mobility in people with Gold A COPD.
H2: The Clinical Pilates programme contributed to improved lung function in people with Gold A COPD.
H3: The Clinical Pilates programme positively influences the motor performance of people with Gold A COPD.
H4: The Clinical Pilates programme positively influences the physical activity levels of people with COPD Gold A.
H5: The Clinical Pilates programme positively influences the sleep quality of people with COPD Gold A.
H6: The Clinical Pilates programme contributes to improving the HRQoL levels of people with COPD Gold A.

| Effect of a Clinical Pilates programme, as a tool in the field of Rehabilitation Nursing on physical activity levels in people with COPD Gold A. | Actigraph® GT3X+ accelerometer. The brand protocol requires wearing the device for a period of 4 days, including 2 days at the weekend. The device will be programmed for 6 hours on the first day of assessment and recordings will be made every 15 seconds. A record sheet will be provided to indicate the times when the accelerometer is put on and taken off. The device is placed on the non-dominant wrist and daily recording of at least 600 minutes (10 hours) is mandatory. | Applied pre-intervention and post-intervention (with a 2-month interval).
