Intervention model description: Randomized controlled trial
Primary purpose: TREATMENT

Brief summary: To analyze the effects of a Pilates exercise program on obesity, sarcopenic, risk of falls and health in Spanish postmenopausal women.

Detailed description: This is a randomized clinical trial of single-blind with 2 arms (Control group and experimental group), in which a pre-treatment-postest design has been used.

The study will define two groups:

* A control group (CG) that will not be submitted to treatment, which will be evaluated in the pre and post phase of the study. Participants assigned to this group will receive general advice on the positive effects of regular physical activity and will be given a guide to recommendations for promoting physical activity.
* An experimental group (GE) that after an initial evaluation will undergo a physical training program based on Pilates exercises.

Once the intervention is finished, it will be submitted to a final evaluation to see if there is a difference or not with the results obtained at the beginning.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* No menstrual activity for at least 12 months.
* Present obesity and / or sarcopenic.
* Do not participate in a weight loss program.
* Be able to understand the instructions, programs and protocols of this project.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Contraindications for conducting physical tests.
* Diseases that limit the static and dynamic balance and physical activity. -
* Central or peripheral vestibular or nerve alterations.
