After three days, the volunteers participated in an aerobics
session for 40 minutes, based on the same effort
level of the hydrogymnastics session, but without reducing17
beats as suggested by AEA to work performed
in the aquatic environment. The aerobics session was
performed with a five minutes warm up that included
stretching exercises and small displacements. During
the following thirty minutes after the warm up, exercises
that requested large muscle groups were choreographed
using different rhythms. The intensity increased gradually
during the session; however, it decreased by the end
of the session. The cool down period involved stretching
and loosening exercises that lasted five minutes.
