Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of acute cardiovascular responses of resistance exercise (RE) on stage I hypertensive elderly women. Twenty four hypertensive women (63.7 ± 3.7 years) were subjected a session of RE, with eight stations (3 sets, 12 repetitions, 50% 1 RM). The heart rate (HR), systolic blood pressure (SBP) and blood pressure (DBP) were measured before the exercise sessions (A), immediately after the fifth station (B), and 10 minutes after the exercise sessions (C). Repeated measures Anova and post-hoc Tukey test (p < 0.05) were performed. The results demonstrated significant increase in SBP, DBP and HR (p < 0.05) between the A and B conditions. Subsequently, SBP and DBP decreased significantly for the C condition as compared to the B condition (p < 0.05); however, only DBP decreased significantly for the A condition (p < 0.05). Although the results demonstrated that acute cardiovascular modifications are associated with RE, hypotensive effects were only verified on DBP.Downloads
