Physical exercise (PE) can promote different effects in FMS depending on the chosen method: aerobic training (AT) alone, resistance training (RT) alone or the combination of both in concurrent training (CT). <strong>Objective:</strong> To synthesize data from clinical trials on the effects of resistance training and aerobic training in people with FMS. <strong>Methods:</strong> Searches were performed in the Pubmed, Scielo, Virtual Health Library, Scopus and Web of Science databases. Articles published between 2009 and 2020 were analyzed. <strong>Results:</strong> Eighteen randomized clinical trials were included to compose the discussion of this review. Altogether 1,136 individuals with FMS who participated in interventions with PE were analyzed; 10 studies used RT as an intervention method; 8 applied AT and 3 used CT. In 3 studies more than one method was used. Studies pointed out that there were significant improvements in biological and psychophysiological aspects at the end of the interventions. C<strong>onclusion:</strong> The analyzed articles suggested that PE through both RT and AT, alone or combined, is an alternative treatment for the population with FMS, being a low-cost intervention and providing significant improvements for these patients.</p>}, journal={ABCS Health Sciences}, author={Gomes, Matheus Borges da Cruz and Alves, Heitor Barbosa and Barbosa, Ramon Martins and Oliveira, Ícaro Cerqueira da Silva and Santos, Geovane Alves dos and Carvalho, Leandro Paim da Cruz}, year={2022}, month={Feb.}, pages={e022302} }
