“…An important tool for increasing exercise adepts is physical activity in an aquatic environment, which allows for metabolic improvements as well as cardiorespiratory improvement and less impact on joints (Azevêdo et al, 2008;Kanitz et al, 2014;Medeiros et al, 2016;Nagle et al, 2015;Tsitkanou et al, 2017). Research shows that the aquatic environment, compared to the terrestrial, decrease the maximum heart rate and the average heart rate obtained in exercise concerning the positioning of the body in the water, the depth, and temperature of the water, thus making it very advantageous in cases of pathologies, considering that the use of the aquatic environment brings a hydrostatic pressure which lowers blood pressure and improves venous return (Graef & Kruel, 2006;Nakanishi et al, 2004;Ritchie & Hopkins, 1991), relevant features in rehabilitation (Carregaro, 2008) .…”
