Summary

This study will compare different exercise training protocols on health parameters of postmenopausal women. The hypothesis is that short duration high intensity interval training will promote different effects of long duration moderate intensity training.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

High intensity interval training

Consists of 60 seconds sets of high-intensity exercises, characterized by heart rate\> 85% of maximal heart rate (HRmax), obtained through the formula (220-age), or by the Rated Perceived Exertion between 7 and 8 on the Borg scale, which ranges from 0 to 10. Of the 60 seconds of high intensity exercise, 30 seconds will be to get up and down a 16 cm step and 30 seconds of squats, with knee flexion greater than 90º, both at the highest possible speed. The recovery between sets is light walk for 60 seconds. If the volunteers do not reach the proposed intensity zone, they will be instructed to increase the number of squats and step ascents and descents.

OTHER

Moderate intensity continuous training

Consist of performing a 30 minute walk at 50% of reserve heart rate (HRR), calculated by (HRmax - HRmax) x% + HRmax. HRmax being obtained by means of the formula (220 - age).

OTHER

Control

Consist of performing no exercise training.
