Aerobic Training in Pregnant Women With Gestational Diabetes and Chronic Hypertension

The aim of the present study is verify glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and HOMA behavior in pregnant women with gestational diabetes or chronic hypertension after an aerobic training in cycle-ergometer. The sample is composed by 64 pregnant and sedentary women, 20 weeks' pregnant. Two experimental groups (gestational diabetes and chronic hypertension, n = 16 each) will perform a low-intensity aerobic training in cycle-ergometer, three times/week, for 45 minutes each session. Two control groups (gestational diabetes and chronic hypertension, n = 16 each) will perform an unique session/week of relaxation and stretching. Outcomes: first ventilatory threshold, HbA1c,HOMA, type of delivery, weight and height of the newborn.
