Summary

Objective: Describe the effect of different aerobic training programs on the autonomic nervous system (ANS), cardiovascular condition, body composition, metabolic profile, movement and functional independence in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI).

Design: Randomized clinical trial Participants: Individuals in the chronic phase of SCI. Interventions: Three training programs: continuous aerobic in kayak, aerobic resistance circuit, and high-intensity interval with rope. The main measures to be explored will be the potential effects of training on heart rate variability as an indicator of autonomic function; measurement of oxygen consumption (VO2max) and resting metabolic unit (METs) for cardiovascular fitness; bone density examination (DXA) for body composition, metabolic profile, functional independence and life satisfaction in individuals with SCI.

Results: The 8-week training program will increase METs and VO2max, improve heart rate variability and anthropometric variables, body composition, and metabolic profile

Interventions

OTHER

Continuous aerobic kayak training program

Sitting in a special chair on the Kayak Pro® Speed Stroke PRO ergometer. 5-minute warm-up and continuous training, for 30 minutes on the ergometer at a moderate to vigorous intensity, 5 days a week.

OTHER

Aerobic Endurance Circuit Program

Sitting with feet flat on the floor and shoulder-width apart, in each session with a 5-minute warm-up, light intensity training with upper body strengthening, 5 days a week.

OTHER

High intensity interval program with rope

Sitting with feet flat on the floor and shoulder-width apart, in each session with a 5-minute warm-up, vigorous intensity undulating rope training using the interval method, 5 days a week.
