Analysis of blood pressure response after resistance training in the elderly
Abstract
The present study aimed to verify if a resistance training, under the method of circuit with low intensity, is able to promote post-exercise hypotension in normotensive elderly. The study included eight females, trained forabout six months in resistance training. The volunteers underwent a training session under the circuit method, with an intensity of 50% of one repetition maximum and execution of 20 submaximal repetitions (20% below the maximum), with 1 minute rest interval between exercises. Measurements of diastolic and systolic blood pressure were performed with the subjects seated at rest in stages of 5 minutes, for a total period of 30 minutes, using the auscultatory method. The results showed that the protocol resistance training induced a post-exercise hypotension statistically significant (p <0.05) for both systolic blood pressure (from the 10th minute) and for diastolic blood pressure (from the 5th minute). It is concluded that in normotensive elderly, a single turn loop, typical muscular endurance, promotes hypotension after exercise for both systolic pressure and to diastolic pressure.
