The effects of low-intensity single-leg exercise on regional arterial stiffness.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We examined the effect of low-intensity single-leg exercise (20 or 30 watt, 5 min) on pulse wave velocity from the femoral to the ankle arteries in 18 young men. After the exercise, the velocity significantly decreased in the exercised leg, but not in the counterpart, suggesting that the decrease in arterial stiffness in the exercised leg was induced mainly by exercise-related regional factors.

Effects of nitric oxide synthase inhibitor on decrease in peripheral arterial stiffness with acute low-intensity aerobic exercise.
We previously reported that even low-intensity, short-duration acute aerobic exercise decreases arterial stiffness. We aimed to test the hypothesis that the exercise-induced decrease in arterial stiffness is caused by the increased production of NO in vascular endothelium with exercise. Nine healthy men (age: approximately 22-28 yr) performed a 5-min single-leg cycling exercise (30 W) in the su...
متن کاملComparing the Effects of Eight Weeks of Whole Body Vibration Exercise Combined With Rope Skipping at two Different Intensities on Physical Performance of Older Men: A Randomized Single-Blind Clinical Trial
Objectives: Whole-Body Vibration (WBV) exercise seems to be an effective alternative to improve physical performance in the elderly. This study aims to compare the effects of eight weeks of WBV exercise combined with rope skipping at two different intensities on physical performance of older men. Methods & Materials: This is a randomized single-blind clinical trial. Participants were 30 older ...
متن کاملAssociation of Arterial Stiffness Following Glucose Uptake and Exercise with Baseline Vitamin D Levels in Inactive Men and Women
vitamin D deficiency is associated with many cardiovascular disorders. Arterial stiffness responses also depend on nutritional and exercise. Therefore, the study aimed to investigate the relationship between arterial stiffness response after glucose uptake and exercise with baseline levels of vitamin D in inactive men and women. The present study was an analysis correlation study, and the subj...

متن کاملHabitual exercise and arterial aging.
Aging affects the function and structure of arteries and increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). In healthy sedentary adults, aging is associated with increased stiffness (reduced compliance) of large elastic arteries; impaired vascular endothelial function, including reductions in endothelium-dependent dilation (EDD), release of tissue-type plasminogen activator (fibrinolytic capa...
