Inclusion Criteria

Men and women; aged between 30 and 55 years; affected by Covid-19 in the mild form of the disease (treated at home); and in the severe form of the disease (required hospitalization); individuals who present any symptoms of the disease such as dyspnea; fatigue; respiratory and/or skeletal muscle weakness; among others.

Exclusion Criteria

Men and women who are in the period of transmission of the Covid-19 disease or who are undergoing previous home or outpatient physical therapy treatment; individuals with a cognitive disorder that prevents them from understanding the tests and training; musculoskeletal changes that make it impossible to perform tests and aerobic physical training; hemodynamic instability or that evolved with arrhythmias; smokers or who use drugs that interfere with cardiac functionality and cardiovascular autonomic control.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Healthy men and women, without previous disease, affected by Covid-19, who developed the mild, moderate or severe form of the disease, may present increased sympathetic influence and decreased parasympathetic activity when evaluated through spectral analysis of heart rate and compared conditions. pre and post the aerobic physical training program.;It is expected to find metabolic alterations, evaluated through blood samples, such as: increase in fasting glucose and insulin; increase in total cholesterol and fractions; increase in triglycerides; increase in C-reactive creatine; increased levels of tumor necrosis and interleukins (IL-6 and IL-10). All these variables are influenced by the aerobic physical training program.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The aerobic physical training program may be able to promote in all men affected by covid-19, from the three groups studied, the improvement of cardiorespiratory and metabolic function, such as the anaerobic threshold and volume of oxygen consumed at peak exercise (VO2peak) , evaluated by means of the ergospirometric test.;The aerobic physical training program may also be able to promote different cardiac hemodynamic and autonomic effects, decrease inflammatory markers, in addition to improving skeletal muscle strength and functionality, which may provide benefits for physical and mental health.
