The falls are harmful events to the health of the elderly people, that cause injuries, hospitalization and death in this population. In this context, it becomes imminent need for methods to identify the profile of the elderly falling as well the development of strategies that are effective for the prevention of falls in older people. For the latter, it highlights the intervention programs based on the development of resistance training, single or in combination with other interventions. From the foregoing, the main aim of this research was to analyze the effect of resistance training periodization of the stratification of the risk of falls, functional capacity, maximum muscle strength and fear of falling in older women. For this, a survey was conducted in two phases, which originated the realization of two original articles. Article 1 was an observational, analytical and cross-sectional study aimed to analyze the relationship of measures relating to the risk of falls, functional capacity, muscle strength and fear of falling in fallers e non-fallers older women. It was observed the relationship of measures relating to the risk of falls, functional capacity and muscle strength. However, there was no difference between the groups regarding the analyzed outcomes. Age was a factor of influence for the risk of falls, functional ability and strength, not for fear of falling. Article 2 was conducted a randomized clinical trial in order to analyzed the effect of periodization of strength training to re duce the risk of falls, functional capacity, muscle strength and fear of falling in older women. Therefore, it was the participants were allocated in resistance training groups, the linear periodization model or the daily wave model, or control group. The follow-up the participants were 16 weeks. In both intervention groups were observed reduction in risk of falls, improved functional capacity and muscle strength, which was not observed in the control group. The elderly responsive to resistance training showed higher performance in outcome measures compared to the group of nonresponders elderly, especially when analyzing the effect of the sample size. The intervention program did not influence the fear of falling in participants.
