Hypothesis: To investigate if the application of different protocols of active recovery promotes difference in reducing Heart Rate (HR) in Post-Exercise (PE). This was a prospective, randomized trial of patients undergoing Exercise Testing (ET) and applied to two different protocols of active recovery. They were divided into G1 with recovery of 1.5 mph/2.5% and G2 40% of the speed and slope of the peak in the PE. Variables were evaluated pre-test and intrinsic to the TE. We compared the recovery of FC 1 and 2 min in the PE. Statistical analysis used the chi-square test, Student’s t test and considered p
