Abstract
Objective: To identify the positive and negative indicators of physical training in people with Chronic Renal Insufficiency (CRF), to support professionals and academics of physical education and related areas, as a theoretical reference for physical training for nephropaths. Bibliographic review: The person with CRF has a great loss of muscle mass, which is the most significant indicator of mortality in people undergoing hemodialysis. The loss of muscle mass, sarcopenia, can be a risk mitigated by physical activity, which exerts an important control in reversing this loss, emphasizing that aerobic and / or strength exercise programs, when properly prescribed during hemodialysis, are safe for patients and can generate a range of benefits for these individuals. Final considerations: The study points out that physical training has benefits for the improvement of the general condition and quality of life of chronic kidney patients, with improvements in several functions being observed, having a direct influence on the quality of life of this group, which can be adopted as a non-pharmacological proposal safe and effective for people with CKD.
