Abstract

Objective: To analyze the effects of two different methods of acute resistance training on blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) in menopausal women and in elderly practitioners of physical activity. Materials and methods: Participated in the present study 40 menopausal and elderly women who practiced physical activity and were physically independent, 15 of whom were hypertensive and 25 were normotensive, aged 60.4±4.9 years. Each participant trained the two different RT methods, namely: Traditional Resistance Training (TRT) and the Cluster Set (CS) at high speed, once for each method, within a 48-hour interval from one session to the next. Simultaneously, BP and HR were measured twice during rest (PRE); immediately after training (POST); five minutes post-training (POS5’) and ten minutes post-training (POST10’), for each of the protocols. With the measurements of HR and BP, the double product (SD) was calculated. The order of the methods (CS or TRT) among the volunteers was assigned in a counterbalanced way based on the performance in the 10RM test on the leg press. Results: BP, DP and HR did not show differences between training sessions but showed significant changes between moments for both groups. However, the effect of HPE was not significant in any of the protocols. Conclusion: TRT and CS promote beneficial differences in hemodynamic responses, but without differences between training protocols. Therefore, these results partially compare what can happen with heart rate, blood pressure, and double product.
