Abstract
Deep Water Running (DWR) in the interval training system (ITS) is a method of training and physical rehabilitation indicated for obese patients. The objective was to investigate the influence of DWR‐ITS on body composition and functional capacity in young adults with obesity. This is a pilot study of uncontrolled clinical trial of non‐probabilistic sampling. Measurement of abdominal circumference, evaluation of skinfolds, analysis of body composition and application of the six‐minute walk test (6MWT) were performed. There was an increase in the distance walked evaluated by the 6MWT from 598,08 ± 63,79 meters to 645,46 ± 81,93 meters after six weeks of intervention. DWR‐ITS contributed to the improvement in functional capacity in obese university students.
