INTERVENTION: G11.427.410.698.277 This is an uncontrolled clinical study, randomized with comparator groups, with at least 50 participants in each group, totaling a minimum of 100 participants. Which will have groups of adults and seniors who will perform aquatic training in the vertical position (water aerobics and/or jogging), 2 to 3 times a week, on non‐consecutive days, with a total duration of 50 minutes each session, the 5‐10 minutes initial ones destined to warm‐up, 30‐40 minutes of aerobic and/or strength and/or combined training and the final 5‐10 minutes destined to muscular relaxation or calm return and closing of the session. The intervention period will be 2 years, with progressions in the training prescription, sometimes modulating the modality (aerobic, strength or combined), the intensity and/or volume. CONDITION: Diabetes mellitus; Hypertension; Obesity E05.318.740.600.800.725.500.500 PRIMARY OUTCOME: It is expected to find an improvement in health‐related physical fitness, assessed by the Rikli and Jones test battery, with an improvement of at least 10% in functional capacity. Data collected before and after the intervention. SECONDARY OUTCOME: It is expected to find an improvement in depressive symptoms, assessed by a self‐administered instrument, with an improvement of at least 1 point. Data collected before and after the intervention. It is expected to find an improvement in random blood glucose, assessed by the capillary blood glucose test, with a reduction and/or maintenance of blood glucose levels. Data collected before and after the intervention, in addition to collections performed before, immediately and 30 minutes after the first and last session of each training mesocycle. It is expected to find an improvement in signs and symptoms in women, assessed by a self‐administered instrument. Data collected before and after the intervention. It is expected to find an improvement in sleep quality, assessed by a self‐administered instrument, with an improvement of at least 1 point. Data collected before and after the intervention. It is expected to find an improvement in the biochemical profile (total cholesterol, LDL, HDL and triglycerides, fasting glucose, creatinine, urea, uric acid, glycated hemoglobin, C‐reactive protein, interleukin‐6, interleukin‐10), evaluated by blood collection . Data collected before and after the intervention. It is expected to find an improvement in the measurement of blood pressure, evaluated by the outpatient examination with automatic equipment, with a reduction and/or maintenance of blood pressure levels. Data collected before and after the intervention, in addition to collections performed before, immediately and 30 minutes after the first and last session of each training mesocycle. It is expected to find an improvement in the perception of quality of life, assessed by a self‐administered instrument, with a reduction of at least 1 point. Data collected before and after the intervention. INCLUSION CRITERIA: Be a participant in the Vertical Position Water Activities program; have medical authorization to practice physical exercise
