Abstract

Introduction: Bariatric surgery has an effect on reducing body weight. Physical exercise has a positive relation on the physiological aspects for post-bariatric individuals. However, the effect of strength training and its application in the postoperative period remain obscure. Objective: The present study aimed to perform a systematic review of the effects of strength training on the physiological aspects in post-bariatric subjects.

Methods: A survey was conducted in databases, following the PRISMA criteria. The included studies were evaluated using the PEDro scale. Cohen's kappa score assessed the level of agreement.

Results: Seven studies were included in the review. The duration of the interventions and individuals evaluated were homogeneous. Studies have shown significant improvements for physical fitness variables. However, inconsistent descriptions were identified in the training session, hindering proper practice guidance.

Conclusion: The studies reported positive effects on the analyzed variables.
