Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| After the training period (12 weeks) is expected reduction approximately 4mmHg in clinical and ambulatory blood pressure, which will be obtained by the oscillometric method in the laboratory and in ambulatory conditions. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Heart rate reduction obtained by electrocardiogram; reduction of the double product obtained by the product of heart rate and systolic blood pressure; improving the quality of life obtained by the Short Form-36, whose range is from 0 to 100, where 0 represents the level of the the worst quality of life and the highest level 100; improved body composition by bone density X-ray double (increased lean mass and decreased fat mass) increased physical fitness as measured by treadmill test, which will provide data on total distance walk and distance of onset pain (both in meters); and, the test of one repetition maximum which will provide the strength of individuals in bodybuilding movements, measured in kilograms; | — |
