The 12-week training was conducted at an outpatient clinic, in equipped and air conditioned room, with three weekly 1-hour sessions on alternate days. All participants were provided beforehand experie
• 2nd week: a volume adjustment was implemented and then the time determined for treadmill walking was 25 minutes, using Vcrit1
• 3rd week: a 30-minute treadmill treadmill was maintained at the same speed as the previous week
• 4th week: the training lasted 35 minutes with Vcrit1. On that occasion, a reassessment was made, based on the CF's to dete

Eligibility

Age
18 Years to 90 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Participants who met the following inclusion criteria were considered eligible for inclusion in the study: hypertensive patients classified in stages 1, 2 and 3 (Stage 1: SBP between 140-159 mmHg and / or DBP between 90-99 mmHg; Stage 2: PAS between 160-179 mmHg and / or PAD between 100-109 mmHg and Stage 3: SBP ? 180mmHg and / or PAD ? 110 mmHg) according to the VI Brazilian Guidelines for SAH; patients rated with very weak and reasonable physical fitness according to American Heart Association criteria, which uses the maximum oxygen consumption (ml / kg / min) for classification.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Participants who presented one of the following conditions were: non-verbal communication; Grade III obesity, ie, Body Mass Index (BMI)> 40kg / m2; patients with a history of coronary disease classified as moderate to high risk (classes C and D) for physical training according to the American Heart Association criteria.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1. Increased heart rate variability (HRV) at rest, verified by means of the frequency meter, from the observation of a variation of at least 40% in the pre- and post-intervention measurements. 2. Increased functional capacity, verified by the peak oxygen consumption measured by the ergospirometric test; from the observation of a variation of at least 10% in the pre- and post-intervention measurements.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. Decreased blood pressure levels, verified by means of blood pressure measurement obtained by the sphygmomanometer, from the observation of any reduction in pre and post-intervention measurements.
