Effects of Aerobic Exercise Intensity on Post-exercise Blood Pressure and Cardiovascular Function in Prehypertensive Men in Their 30s

PURPOSE Blood pressure (BP) in hypertensive individuals is reduced by the accumulation of post-exercise hypotension (PEH) induced a long period training. This study aimed to investigate effects intensity two different aerobic exercises with identical energy expenditure on blood and cardiovascular function prehypertensive men.METHODS Eleven men their 30s participated trials repeatedly. In first trial, exercise was moderate continuous (MICE) 70% VO<sub>2</sub>max, second trial high-intensity interval (HIIE) 50% 90% VO<sub>2</sub>max. Each performed for 30 min, variables related BP were measured at certain times 1 hr during recovery phase.RESULTS Our main findings are as follows: (1) Systolic significantly lower 45 min time than baseline HIIE systolic MICE 10, 15, time. (2) The rate product higher 30, 45, 60 (3) heart (4) Stroke volume (5) Cardiac output 15 phase. (6) Total vascular conductance (7) peripheral resistance phase.CONCLUSIONS shows stress MICE; however, contributes augmentation PEH improvement function. Therefore, rather should be suggested control enhancement males.
