Abstract

Objective: To verify the effect of an intervention in physical education evaluated in different periods, considering school recess, on the levels of cardiorespiratory physical fitness, abdominals in 1 minute, flexibility, and systolic blood pressure in youth and adults education (YAE) and in both sexes. Methods: Quantitative pre-experimental study conducted with 27 students, 9 females, mean age 29.38 (SD: ± 15.39) years old and 18 males, 20.40 (SD: ± 9.34). The intervention happened with Jump classes in the first semester. Handball and rugby were applied in the second half. The effects of the intervention were assessed on systolic blood pressure (SBP), cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), flexibility, and sit-up abdominals using Cohen's D. Results: In women, the CRF (effect = 0.95) and flexibility (effect = 1.33) increased between March / July. During recess, there was a reduction in these physical capacities. In August / December there was a further increase in CRF, together with the reduction in SBP (effect = -1.06). In males, there was a reduction in SBP (effect = -0.69) and an increase in CRF (effect = 0.84) between August / December. Conclusion: Gymnastics classes improved the health indicators of the students, especially in the female sex during the first semester, while handball and rugby increased the CRF and reduced the SBP in both sexes. The recess period reduced students' physical capacities, indicating that physical education classes are an important means of improving physical fitness levels at YAE.
