Brief summary

Compare cardiovascular responses to Tilt and cardiorespiratory capacity in men and women in middle age before and after aerobic physical training. It is hypotesized that men have higher parassimpathetic modulation in heart rate control than women

Interventions

Aerobic Physical Training, during 12 weeks, 3 times a week, 60 minutes each session , intensity between 70 and 85 of the maximal heart rate.
