An interventional study of High-intensity interval Hydrogynmastics and Hydrogynmastics Continuous Moderate in Healthy People, sponsored by Universidade Federal do vale do São Francisco. Recruiting at 1 site in Brazil. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 85 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2023-05-11.

Introduction: water aerobics involves the practice of specific aquatic exercises that are based on the use of water resistance as a load and on thrust as an impact reducer, making it possible to perform physical exercise with a lower risk of injury even at a high intensity. Objective: The overall objective of this study will be to compare the effectiveness of high intensity interval versus moderate continuous water aerobics to improve health outcomes in apparently healthy individuals.
Method: randomized clinical trial will be performed in the premises of the College of Physical Education of the Federal University of the São Francisco Valley. 100 adults, of both sexes, will be randomized into two groups, high intensity interval hydrogynastic (HIAI) or moderate continuous aquatic gymnastics (HCM). Individuals will be evaluated for primary endpoints of muscle strength and endurance, aerobic fitness, flexibility and body composition. The secondary outcomes evaluated will be the quality of life, functionality and perception of improvement by a Likert-type Improvement Scale, at the following moments: initial, final and follow-up of one month after the end of the training. Individuals will be assisted for three months, often weekly twice, with sessions lasting 50 min. In order to identify differences between and within the groups, an equation of generalized estimates will be used as regression model with the syntax according to the multivariate model.

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.
Weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. Example: 70 kg and 1.75 m gives 70 ÷ (1.75 × 1.75) ≈ 22.9.
What counts as overweight or obesity differs between countries (some use lower cut-offs), so go by the range the study states.

High-intensity Interval training Hydrogynmastics, 2x/week, for 3 months.
Other: High-intensity interval Hydrogynmastics
Hydrogynmastics Continuous Moderate training (HCM), 2x/week, for 3 months.
Other: Hydrogynmastics Continuous Moderate
The HIIH to PSE group during the high intensity (HI) period should remain between 16 to 18 points, while in the moderate intensity (MI) intervals around 11. The dynamic exercises will progression, in the first month will be 1 min of HI and 2 min of MI, in the second month of 1 min of HI and 1 min of MI and in the last month of 1 min of HI and 30 s of MI, until completing 30 min in total.
Also known as: HIIH
For the HCM group the PSE will be around 11 points during the 30 min of moderate continuous exercise. In both groups the form of intensity monitoring that will be through the PSE, in which this scale will be printed in banner form and affixed next to the physical education teacher during the classes.
Also known as: HCM
Aerobic Fitness
This maximal/submaximal test will be performed on cyclergometer, Balke test.
Time frame: three months after randomization
Body Composition
The body composition (density and percentage of body fat) will be estimated by prediction equations (JACKSON et al., 1980).
Time frame: three months after randomization
Strength Muscular
Strength Muscular will be measured by 1RM test in two exercises, involving the segments of the upper limbs (supine) and lower limbs (leg press).
Time frame: three months after randomization
Endurance Muscular
Muscle endurance will be assessed by the test in which the individual performs the maximum number of repetitions of given exercises for one minute. The exercises will be of arm and abdominal flexion.
Time frame: three months after randomization
Quality Life
Quality of life by assessed by WHOQOL-breaf
Time frame: three months after randomization
Functionality
Functionality will be assessed by IVCF-20
Time frame: three months after randomization
Perception of Improvement
Perception of Improvement will be measured by an Likert-type Improvement Scale
Time frame: three months after randomization
