BACKGROUND: This study aimed to determine whether morbidly obese women have an alteration of heart rate (HR) kinetics and HR variability (HRV) during the 6-min walk test (6MWT) and if an aerobic exercise training can modify these indexes after gastric bypass surgery (GBS). DESIGN AND METHODS: Nineteen morbidly obese women were randomized to a trained (TG) or control group and 12 women of eutrophic group (EG) were also evaluated. The obese women were tested on two occasions: 1 week before and 4 months after GBS through record of HR and R-R intervals during 6MWT for analysis HR kinetics. The TG underwent an aerobic exercise training program on a treadmill (1-h session, totaling 36 sessions over 12-week). RESULTS: Both obese groups demonstrated a significant reduction of rMSSD and slower HR kinetics during the 6MWT when compared to the EG. In addition, only the TG demonstrated a significant improvement in HRV indexes, walking distance, faster time constant and mean response time of HR during 6MWT after training (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Morbidly obese women have slower HR kinetics and altered cardiac modulation during submaximal exercise. However, aerobic exercise training can produce beneficial adaptations in HRV and faster HR kinetics following GBS.
