CANCINO-RAMIREZ, JAVIERA et al. Exercise and physical activity in adults who underwent bariatric surgery. Consensus document. Rev. méd. Chile [online]. 2019, vol.147, n.11, pp.1468-1486. ISSN 0034-9887.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0034-98872019001101468.

Physical exercise is useful in people who underwent bariatric surgery. However, the right dosage is still a topic for discussion. The aim of this article is to consolidate the prescription criteria for physical activity and exercise in bariatric patients. A panel of experts to whom the topics were previously assigned for review, met to reach a consensus. Each topic was presented and subjected to discussion and voting by the participants and attendants who were exercise professionals from different obesity treatment centers. We report the conclusions reached for aerobic exercise, strength training, protein supplementation and physical activity for weight maintenance in bariatric patients.
