Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Volunteers of both sexes; adults in the age group of 39 to 59 years of age; classified as pre-obese and obesity I according to the III Brazilian Guidelines on Obesity. Show good adaptation to the liquid medium; perform the entry; exit and walking in the pool independently, and adequately perform the Deep Water Running technique in interval training system (DWR-STI). All volunteers must submit prescription attesting to the absence of restrictive heart disease the practice of aquatic physical training.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: cardiorespiratory, musculoskeletal and neuromuscular diseases that impede the realization of the aquatic training program; as well as the following contraindications of aquatic physical therapy; hydrophobia; skin wounds and infectious diseases. Volunteers may not have taken part in other physical training program for at least two months before the start of data collection, as well as carrying out other training or nutritional monitoring program for the aquatic intervention. For those who use antihypertensive medications and therapy for hormone replacement therapy (HRT); will not be allowed to change in class and or drug dose. Each volunteer can have a maximum of 3 absences (10%) nonconsecutive during the intervention.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Increased lean body mass between 20 and 30%, and decreased coporal fat by 2% both evaluated by electrical bioimpedance, improved functional capacity, assessed by the Walk Test 6 minutes 6MWT) will around 35 meters more than the distance above and improves the quality of life assessed by the Impact of Weight on quality of life-Lite (IWQOL-LITE) between 70-80% in the domains physical function, self-esteem, difficulty in public places and work in the water group after end of the intervention. In the control group is expected to occur no changes in the values of any variable analyzed. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The results of the Water Group (Intervention) are statistically better (considering p <0.05) than the control group, the following variables: body composition assessed by bioelectrical impedance analysis, functional capacity assessed by the 6MWT and quality of life assessed by IWQOL- LITE after the end of treatment. | — |
