Does 12 weeks of low-intensity aerobic exercise training reduce resting blood pressure and blood pressure responses to stress compared to moderate-intensity exercise training in borderline hypertensive humans?
In borderline hypertensive humans, 12 weeks of low-intensity aerobic exercise is more effective than moderate-intensity exercise at reducing resting blood pressure and stress responses.
These results suggest that, in borderline hypertensive humans, 12 weeks of aerobic exercise training attenuates the cardiovascular responses to the Stroop. Furthermore, low-intensity exercise training appears to be a more effective stimulus than moderate-intensity exercise training in reducing resting blood pressure and blood pressure responses to stress.
