- Hypotensive acute effect of a combined resistance and walk-based exercise among over 65-year old community-dwelling women J. del Pozo-Cruz B. del Pozo-Cruz E.C. Rodríguez Bies R.M. Alfonso-Rosa P. Navas G. López-Lluch Medicina Elderly Strength Public health Chronic disease Low intensity exercise Objective. The aim of this study was to test the effects on blood pressure of a single bout of low-intensity resistance exercise combined with moderate aerobic walk-based exercise performed by active, controlled hypertensive elderly women. Method. Forty-two participants were randomized in two types of sessions: exercise session (n = 21), that performed a single bout of combined exercise and control session (n = 21) that keep in rest during the bout. Pre-session, post-session and post-24-hour systolic, diastolic and mean pressure values were evaluated and compared between groups. Results. Statistical significant reductions were achieved just after the performed bout (7% of reduction) and 24 hours after the bout (9% of reduction) on the diastolic blood pressure values in the exercise session group. Conclusions. In this population, a single bout of combined session is feasible and safe and has a hypotensive effect on diastolic blood pressure in both immediately and after 24 hours post exercise. 2012 artículo científico 1888-7546 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=323327670001 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3233 Revista Andaluza de Medicina del Deporte application/pdf Junta de Andalucía Revista Andaluza de Medicina del Deporte (España) Num.2 Vol.5
