Acute antihypertensive effect of self-selected exercise intensity in older women with hypertension: A crossover trial

Clinical Interventions in Aging Aug 08, 2019

Costa IBB, Schwade D, Macêdo GAD, et al. - In a “real-world” setting of 20 inactive older women with hypertension (64.9 ± 4.5 years), researchers assessed how ambulatory blood pressure (BP) in these women was influenced by a self-selected exercise (SSE)-intensity session. Baseline evaluations were performed and, thereafter, participants were asked to perform 30 minutes of an SSE-intensity session on an outdoor track and a control session, separated by 7-10 days. For 20 hours after both sessions, they monitored ambulatory BP. Among inactive older women with hypertension, an attenuation of ambulatory systolic BP during awake and 20-hour periods was brought about by an SSE-intensity session. Participants reported the SSE-intensity session as light and pleasant.
