Eligibility

Age
18 Years to No maximum

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Prior diagnosis of Obstructive Sleep Apnea - OSA (apnea hipopnea index above five events/hour); overweight; be aged above eighteen years; both genders

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Having uncontrolled high blood pressure; cerebrovascular disease; kidney failure; arrhythmias; musculoskeletal limitations that compromise exercise performance; adhere to another treatment for Obstructive Sleep Apnea - OSA; did not complete the four experimental sessions

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
It is expected to find a mean difference in apnea-hipopnea index of at least 8 events/hour. Will be evaluated through polysomnography at home (ApneaLinkTM).

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
It is expected to find a mean difference in systolic and diastolic blood pressure of at least 6 mmHg and 3 mmHg, respectively. Assessment will be made by an autonomic monitor (Omron HEM 742). As well as, central blood pressure will also be assessed. Furthermore, the effect of experimental sessions on cardiac autonomic modulation will be evaluated using the heart rate variability technique.
