Eligibility

Age
18 Years to 60 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Individuals of both sexes, different degrees of obesity; I, II and III, aged between 18 and 60 years, sedentary or active, no deficit in the locomotor system and or changes in the reported balance or detected on physical examination and spirometric function preserved; FVC> 80%

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Exclusion was determined when the testing protocol is not finalized within the given deadline, difficulty in understanding and carrying out the tests or when and musculoskeletal limitations or pain prevented the tests

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Expected to find that there is no significant difference between the variable metabolic oxygen consumption at peak exercise (VO2) during cardiopulmonary exercise testing and the incremental shuttle walking test, assessed by expired gas analysis (VO2, VCO2, VE) during the test maximum and submaximal exercise stress via a telemetry system from the observation of a change of at least 5% in measurements between tests;At the end of the study showed no significant difference in the outcome variable, oxygen consumption at peak activity (VO2) for both genders during cardiopulmonary test maximum effort and submaximal exercise test, the incremental shuttle test. VO2 values presented were similar between both tests from the realization of a range of at least 5% in measurements between tests

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Expected to find at the end of the study as a secondary endpoint that anthropometric measurements, BMI, waist and hip circumferences present negative correlations in what concerns the duration of the tests, evaluated through the maximal cardiopulmonary exercise test and submaximal tests, the incremental shuttle walk test and six minutes from the realization of a range of at least 5% in measurements between tests;At the end of the study it was observed that there was moderate and negative correlation between anthropometric measurements of BMI and waist circumference measured through the maximal cardiopulmonary exercise testing from the realization of a range of at least 5% in measurements between tests
