Summary

This study compared the changes in the cardiovascular, hemodynamic and metabolic variables of hypertensive patients who received aerobic physical training with intensity determined by the protocol of double non-exhaustive efforts (DENE) with that of patients who received routine outpatient care 12 weeks after Entry into the study. 63 men and women participated in the study and were allocated in the intervention group (n = 42) and control group (n = 21).The following were performed: Cardiopulmonary exercise test (TECP) for evaluation of peak oxygen consumption (VO2peak), oxygen pulse and double product; DENE protocol for the determination of the intensity of the training. It was obtained the recording of the intervals between consecutive heart beats (iRR) to evaluate the autonomic modulation of the heart rate. Body mass index, waist circumference (AC), hip circumference (CQ) and Waist / hip ratio (WHR) were measured.

Conditions

  • Autonomic Nervous System Diseases

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Physical training program

Physical training program consisted of three weekly sessions lasting up to one hour over a period of twelve weeks. and will be carried out respecting the traditional training principles: biological individuality, Specificity, overload, adaptation and reversibility

BEHAVIORAL

Physical training program

All sessions were started with stretches for lower and upper limbs lasting 10 minutes for warm-up, and after trekking on treadmill using the predetermined critical velocity (Vcrit). The exercises were completed with cooling of the muscle groups for one minute still on the treadmill, plus 10 minutes of relaxation exercises on the mat at the end of aerobic exercise.
