Inclusion Criteria:

  • Breast cancer patients at stages 1, 2 and 3;
  • Sedentary;

    Control

    Exercise Training

    Arm Description

    This group do not participated in the intervention protocol (exercise training), and was followed throughout the entire process. Autonomic activity was assessed before and after 4 weeks.

    This group undergone exercise training intervention during 4 weeks.

    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    Reduction in Low Frequency Heart rate variability component (LF)
    This reduction is positive, indicating a reduction in sympathetic activity and thus the cardiovascular risk
    Increase in High Frequency heart rate variability component (HF)
    Means a increase in parasympathetic activity, which is correlated to reduction in cardiovascular risk
