Dumbbells and flotation devices will be used to increase exercise resistance, focusing on three main areas: upper body, lower body, and cardiorespiratory and abdominal exercises.\n\nEach session will begin with a 5-10-minute active warm-up period. The main workout will consist of a high-intensity interval training protocol with multi-joint exercises. The session will conclude with a 5-10-minute cool-down period.

Participants assigned to this intervention will ingest 200 mL of Chaves thermal water infused with dried bay leaf (L. nobilis) twice per week. The infusion will be prepared by the research team by adding 5 g of dried bay leaf (L. nobilis) to the thermal water and allowing it to infuse for 15 minutes, followed by filtration through a strainer. All participants will be observed by the research team during ingestion to ensure compliance and safety.\n\nThe thermal water used in this intervention is natural mineral water from Termas de Chaves, which emerges at a temperature of 77.0°C.
