This study compared the changes in the cardiovascular, hemodynamic and metabolic variables of hypertensive patients who received aerobic physical training with intensity determined by the protocol of double non-exhaustive efforts (DENE) with that of patients who received routine outpatient care 12 weeks after Entry into the study. 63 men and women participated in the study and were allocated in the intervention group (n = 42) and control group (n = 21).The following were performed: Cardiopulmonary exercise test (TECP) for evaluation of peak oxygen consumption (VO2peak), oxygen pulse and double product; DENE protocol for the determination of the intensity of the training. It was obtained the recording of the intervals between consecutive heart beats (iRR) to evaluate the autonomic modulation of the heart rate. Body mass index, waist circumference (AC), hip circumference (CQ) and Waist / hip ratio (WHR) were measured.

Heart rate variability will be measured by nonlinear methods in hypertensive patients to observe changes in baseline values after 12 weeks.
Timeframe: Finalized study (12 weeks)
