Common interruptions and training cessation are associated with the loss of total health profile, and specifically cardiorespiratory fitness. Would detraining (DT) promote different effects in the cardiorespiratory and health profiles of trained and sedentary older women? Forty-seven older women were divided into an experimental group (EG) and a control group (CG) (EG: n = 28, 70.3 \u00b1 2.3 years; CG: n = 19, 70.1 \u00b1 5.6 years). Oxygen uptake (VO2) and health profile assessments were conducted after the exercise program and after three months of detraining. The EG followed a nine-month multicomponent exercise program before a three-month detraining period. The CG maintained their normal activities. Repeated measures ANOVA showed significant increases in total heath and VO2 (p &lt; 0.01) profile over a nine-month exercise period in the EG and no significant increases in the CG. DT led to greater negative effects on total cholesterol (4.35%, p &lt; 0.01), triglycerides (3.89%, p &lt; 0.01), glucose (4.96%, p &lt; 0.01), resting heart rate (5.15%, p &lt; 0.01), systolic blood pressure (4.13%, p &lt; 0.01), diastolic blood pressure (3.38%, p &lt; 0.01), the six-minute walk test (7.57%, p &lt; 0.01), Pulmonary Ventilation (VE) (10.16%, p &lt; 0.01), the Respiratory Exchange Ratio (RER) (9.78, p &lt; 0.05), and VO2\/heart rate (HR) (16.08%, p &lt; 0.01) in the EG. DT may induce greater declines in total health profile and in VO2, mediated, in part, by the effectiveness of multicomponent training particularly developed for older women.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph16203881","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,10,14]],"date-time":"2019-10-14T03:54:13Z","timestamp":1571025253000},"page":"3881","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":37,"title":["Effects of Three Months of Detraining on the Health Profile of Older Women after a Multicomponent Exercise Program"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1981-6638","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Luis","family":"Leit\u00e3o","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Sciences and Technology Department, Superior School of Education of Polytechnic Institute of Setubal, 2910-761 Set\u00fabal, Portugal"}]},{"given":"Ana","family":"Pereira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sciences and Technology Department, Superior School of Education of Polytechnic Institute of Setubal, 2910-761 Set\u00fabal, Portugal"}]},{"given":"Mauro","family":"Mazini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate Program of Physical Education of Cataguases\u2014Sudamerica Faculty, Cataguases 36774-552, Brazil"},{"name":"Faculty of Physical Education Sports, Federal University of Juiz de Fora, S\u00e3o Pedro 36036-900, Brazil"}]},{"given":"Gabriela","family":"Venturini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Physical Activity and Health Promotion\u2014Labsau\u2014Postgraduate Program in Sport and Exercise Science from the Institute of Physical Education and Sport, University of Rio de Janeiro State, Rio de Janeiro 21941-599, Brazil"}]},{"given":"Yuri","family":"Campos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Physical Education Sports, Federal University of Juiz de Fora, S\u00e3o Pedro 36036-900, Brazil"},{"name":"Studies Research Group in Neuromuscular Responses, University of Lavras, Lavras 37200-000, Brazil"}]},{"given":"Jo\u00e3o","family":"Vieira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Physical Education Sports, Federal University of Juiz de Fora, S\u00e3o Pedro 36036-900, Brazil"}]},{"given":"Jefferson","family":"Novaes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Physical Education Sports, Federal University of Juiz de Fora, S\u00e3o Pedro 36036-900, Brazil"},{"name":"Faculty of Physical Education and Sports, Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro 21941-901, Brazil"}]},{"given":"Jeferson","family":"Vianna","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Physical Education Sports, Federal University of Juiz de Fora, S\u00e3o Pedro 36036-900, Brazil"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0516-6408","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sandro","family":"da Silva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Studies Research Group in Neuromuscular Responses, University of Lavras, Lavras 37200-000, Brazil"}]},{"given":"Hugo","family":"Louro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sciences and Technology Department, Superior School of Education of Polytechnic Institute of Setubal, 2910-761 Set\u00fabal, Portugal"},{"name":"Sports Science School of Rio Maior, Polytechnic Institute of Santar\u00e9m, 2040-413 Rio Maior, Portugal"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,10,13]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"94","DOI":"10.1016\/j.mad.2014.03.002","article-title":"Reprint of: Musculoskeletal system in the old age and the demand for healthy ageing biomarkers","volume":"136","author":"Collino","year":"2014","journal-title":"Mech.
