Introduction: The interval exercise is characterized by periods of high intensity, followed by periods of moderate intensity to recover, leading to benefits in muscle and endothelial functions, therefore, being an alternative treatment for peripheral vascular disease.
Objective: This study aimed to observe the effects of eight weeks of interval exercise in the sub maximum physical capacity on a patient with peripheral vascular disease.
Case Description: A case study was performed with a male patient, seventy years old, with normal body mass index (24.7 kg/m²), smoker, sedentary and diabetic (insulin dependent), being diagnosed with peripheral vascular disease for a year. This study was performed for eight weeks with the application of a high-intensity walking interval training and strength exercises. After eight weeks
of treatment the patient decreased his resting heart rate and subjective sensation of tiredness, increased the distance in the 6-minutewalking test in 24%, endured greater training intensity and increased the “sit down and get up” test score.
Conclusion: The interval training associated to strength training improved the aerobic and anaerobic capacities of the patient, and may be a good alternative in the treatment of peripheral vascular disease.
