Abstract

A challenge for the physiology of the effort now is to understand the correlation between energy waste and regular physical activity as a method of controlling or reducing of the weight and prevention of diseases that come from sedentary lifestyle. The aim of this study was to compare the energy waste in forro and pagode dance in 17 students (age = 14,6 ± 0,9 years-old, body mass = 50,5 ± 6,6 kg and height = 159,7 ± 7, 1cm) of the elementary school of the State elementary School Madre Belem where they were submitted to 50 minutes of music  dance with between 103 to 113 bpm. The students attended two sessions of dance, on alternate days. The estimated energy waste (EE) was through the accelerometer Caltrac ® 100/100 plan. The comparison of WE the Student t test indicated significant differences (p <0,05) among the pagode rhythms (256,18 ± 63,20 kcal) more superior than the forró dance (156.41 ± 34.47). The analysis of the simple linear regression showed no significant relationship between classroom time and WE both for the pagode dance (R2 = -0,02 and SEE = - 82,91) and for the dance (R2 = 0,09 and SEE = 41,74). Conclusion: Both dances showed considerable levels of WE and the greater ones were in pagode dance.
