To compare the effects of aerobic training and behavioural intervention to increase physical activity in the clinical control of asthma and in the quality of life of patients with asthma.
Full description
Adult participants of both genders with moderate to severe asthma, not physically active, will be evaluated after being informed about the study, agreeing and signing the informed consent form. Participants will be randomized to aerobic training or behavioral intervention group. Both interventions will consist of 8 weeks. Aerobic training will be performed on a treadmill (2xweek; 45 min/session). The behavioral intervention will be a program to increase physical activity (1xweek; up to 90 min / session).
