Design outcomes
Primary

| Outcome expected 1: Reduction of blood pressure after physical activity. Measurements: Blood pressure measurements were performed with digital sphygmomanometer, approved by INMETRO, with patients seated, resting, always on the right arm, with the same one resting on a table. Parameters evaluated: systolic and diastolic blood pressure. The reference values ??for PA followed the VII Brazilian Guidelines for Hypertension.;Outcome found 1: Reduction of blood pressure, after six months of physical activity, twice a week, 90 minutes a day. The mean initial systolic blood pressure (SBP) (mean standard error - EPM) was 139 (3) mmHg and the mean final SBP was 120 (3) mmHg. There was a significant reduction using the Wilcoxon Test, p <0.0001. The mean initial Dyastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) was 86 (2) mmHg and the mean final DBP was 72 (1) mmHg. There was a significant reduction using the Wilcoxon Test, p <0.0001. | — |

| Expected outcome 2: Improvement of fasting glycemia and lipid profile. Measures taken: biochemical tests after blood collection. The biochemical classification of the fasting glucose and lipid profile tests was based on the Guidelines of the Brazilian Society of Diabetes (2015-2016) and the V Brazilian Guideline on Dyslipidemias and Prevention of Atherosclerosis, respectively. Parameters evaluated: fasting glycemia, lipid profile.;Found outcome 2: There was no improvement in the fasting glycemia and lipid profile. The mean Total Cholesterol (EPM) was 230 (9) mg/dL at the initial visit and at the final visit it was 224 (9) mg/dL. There were no significant differences, p = 0.47, Wilcoxon's test. The mean LDL-C (PME) was 149 (8) mg/dL at the initial visit and at the final visit it was 143 (7) mg/dL. There were no significant differences in LDL-C levels compared to initial and final visits, using the Wilcoxon test, p = 0.66. Mean HDL-C (EPM) was 52 (2) mg/dL at the initial visit and at the final visit it was 53 (2) mg/dL. There were no significant differences in HDL-C levels compared to initial and final visits using the Wilcoxon test, p = 0.38. Mean TG (MPE) was 170 (13) mg/dL at the initial visit and the final visit was 156 (13) mg/dL. There were no significant differences in TG levels comparing initial and final visits by the Wilcoxon Test, p = 0.20. Mean baseline glycemia (SEM) was 114 mg/dL (8) and final was 112 mg/dL (6). There were no significant differences comparing initial and final Wilcoxon's test, p = 0.64.;Expected outcome 3: Reduction in the weight and abdominal circumference . Measurements: weight/height with calibrated mechanical scale, waist circumference with tape measure. For the calculation of the Body Mass Index (BMI), a mechanical weight/height scale, calibrated, was used. The reference values ??adopted for BMI in the elderly followed the Brazilian Guidelines for Obesity (2016), accepted by the Ministry of Health. Abdominal circumference ( | — |
