Abstract

Objective: Identify the profile of practitioners of aerobic exercises under self-selected intensity. Methods: Data were analysed from PubMed and BVS databases, with original articles, performed in women who were above 18 years old, published in last 10 years, with analysis of self-selected aerobic exercise through the heart rate (HR) measuring, being included 20 articles. Results: It was found in 15 studies that the self-selected intensity would be within the recommendations to improve health, the affective response was positive and, when compared to the imposed intensity, more pleasure was felt in exercise. Individuals with overweight or obesity showed a lower energy expenditure than eutrophic persons, and also used to walk in lower speeds. Age doesn’t seem to have an effect on the affective responses, but only in the physiologic ones. Also, was found more pleasure feeling when doing PA outdoors, in comparison with indoor environments. Conclusion: When the exercise intensity is self-selected, there are more pleasure feelings and the ACSM recommendations are meet, besides to help to improve the physical fitness.
