Brief summary
To analyze the alterations of physiologic variables in healthy sedentary women in the Shuttle Walk Test, verify the distance reached and interruption causes of the test.
Detailed description
The Shuttle Walk Test requires patients to walk at a gradually increasing speed, up and down a 10 meter corridor identified by two marker cones, until they reach a symptom limited maximum. The walking speed was externally paced and controlled by a series of beeps played on a compact disk.
