Evaluate the effects of the practice of maternal physical exercise on the term of pregnancy as a method to enhance spontaneous labor.
At 38 weeks low-risk pregnant women, with singleton cephalic fetus and without previous cesarean delivery, were randomized into 2 groups: a control group without maternal physical exercise practice and a study group with 30 minutes of walking, 3 times a week at 4 Km/h. Induction of labor was performed at 41 weeks
