Therefore, the objective of the present study was to compare the levels of handgrip strength (HGS), quality of life and fatigue before and after a resistance training protocol in women survivors of breast cancer. This study is characterized as experimental, lasting 12 months, consisting of 10 women (average 58.80 ± 6.94 years) survivors of breast cancer. The study analyzed HGS using a manual dynamometer. Quality of life and fatigue were assessed using the FACT B+4 instrument (Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy- Breast Cancer + Arm Subscale) composed of the domains: physical well-being (PWB), social/family well-being (SWB), well -emotional well-being (EWB) functional well-being (FWB), specific aspects of breast cancer (BCS), Trial Outcomes Index (TOI), (FACT-B and FACT-G). To analyze the two dependent measurements (pre- and post-intervention), we used the paired student t test (parametric data), described as mean and standard error (SE). And the Wilcoxon test (non-parametric) described in median and SE. When comparing pre- and post-intervention, there was a significant difference for HGS (t (9) 3.627; p = 0.006, d = 1.14 “large”). Between the domains there was a significant difference for SWB with an improvement of 6.10 (SE 2.11) points, (t (9) = 2.883, p = 0.018; d = “large”), FWB with an improvement of 7.60 (SE 2.77) points, (t (9) = 2.736, p = 0.023; d = 0.86 “large”). As for TOI, FACT-G and FACT-B, there was a significant increase post-training, with gains of 13.60 (EP 4.02), 17.10 (EP 5.07) and 21.90 (EP 6.31) points, respectively. With significant differences confirmed for the TOI (t (9) = 3.376, p = 0.008; d = 1.06 “large”), for the FACT-G (t (9) = 3.372, p = 0.009; d = 1, 06 “large”), and for FACT-B (t (9) = 3.468, p = 0.007; d = 1.09 “large”). The Wilcoxon test indicated an improvement in BCS after the intervention, with a post-intervention median of 4.00 (SE 2.14) points (W = 3.500, p = 0.027; rB = 0.84 “large”). However, in relation to fatigue, there was no significant difference between pre- and post-intervention. Conclusion: RT after 12 months of intervention is significantly beneficial in increasing handgrip strength and improving the quality of life of women who are breast cancer survivors.porAcesso AbertoTreinamento resistidoForça de preensão manualQualidade de vidaFadigaCâncer de mamaResistance trainingHand grip strengthQuality of lifeFatigueBreast cancerAvaliação da força de preensão manual, qualidade de vida e fadiga de mulheres sobreviventes de câncer de mama praticantes de treinamento resistido, durante 12 mesesAssessment of handgrip strength, quality of life and fatigue of women survivors of breast cancer who practiced resistance training for 12 monthsTrabalho de conclusão de curso de graduação (TCCG)
