The cognitive function was analyzed with Stroop Test and Trail Test; body composition was evaluated by bioimpedance; blood tests was use to analyze biochemical parameters of inflammation and oxidative stress. For statistical analysis was used ANOVA of two factors for repeated measurements, having the (EG and PG) group and the time (pre and post exercise). Level of significance adopted was P \< 0,05.
