The aim of the study was to analyze the influence of two exercise interventions modes on adherence, components of functional capacity, anthropometric measures, biochemical variables and level of physical activity among adults living in Rio Claro - SP. Eighty-two women were assigned into two groups: (1) – intervention with frequency of 2 times a week, lasting 60 minutes each session and guidance on healthy habits and physical activity at the end of the session, (2) - intervention with frequency of 3 times a week, lasting 90 minutes each session and no guidance on healthy habits and physical activity. The data were analyzed at the initial period, after 6 months, then after 12 months of intervention. For statistical analysis it was used two-way ANOVA (2x3) and when necessary the Bonferroni post hoc test, for p <0.05. To examine the adherence it was used survival analysis by the Survival Analysis / Kaplan and Meyer. Regarding biochemical variables only cholesterol and glucose showed group x time interaction (p <0.001; p = 0.002, respectively). Anthropometric measurements showed no significant change. For components of functional capacity it was not observed any group x time interaction (better values from the first to the second assessment and less improvement to the last evaluation, in both programs). Except for the minutes spent during the sessions over a year, both programs did not promote significant contributions to the leisure time physical activity level. The adherence was higher for the 2 days intervention (47.2%) compared to 3 days (32. 6%). It is concluded that, due to the similar benefits promoted by both interventions, the 2-day program presents a higher feasibility and shows better adherence. Furthermore, the 2-day program may save money for public health agencies
