The aim of this study was to investigate the acute effect of resistance exercise performed at different intensities on the hemodynamics of normotensive men. The study included 10 normotensive and recreationally-trained men (25.40 ± 6.90 years) performed the following three experimental protocols in a randomized order: a) 60% of 8RM; b) 80% of 8RM; c) 100% of 8RM. All protocols performed six exercises (Leg Press, Vertical Bench Press, Leg Flexion, Close-Grip Seated Row, Leg Extension and Shoulder Press) with three sets of eight repetitions for each exercise. Systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), heart rate (HR) and double product (DP) were measured at rest, at the end of exercise and during the 60-minute post-exercise. The findings showed that there was a significant reduction in the faster SBP with a longer duration (p< 0.0001) for the 100% of 8RM intensity, but without significant decreases in DBP for all intensities (p> 0.05). There were significantly higher elevations in HR and DP for 100% of 8RM at all times (p<0.0001). We conclude that high intensities (100% of 8RM) promote post-exercise hypotension with faster responses and greater duration and increase HR and DP in normotensive men.Keywords: post-exercise hypotension, blood pressure, double product, heart rate RESUMO O objetivo do presente estudo foi verificar o efeito agudo do exercício de força realizado em diferentes intensidades sobre a hemodinâmica de homens normotensos. Participaram do estudo 10 homens aparentemente saudáveis (25.40 ± 6.90) divididos aleatoriamente em três protocolos experimentais: a) 60% de 8RM; b) 80% de 8RM; c) 100% de 8RM. Todos os protocolos realizaram seis exercícios (leg press 45°, supino vertical, flexão de joelhos, remada sentada fechada, extensão de joelhos e desenvolvimento na máquina), com três series de oito repetições para cada exercício. A pressão arterial sistólica (PAS), diastólica (PAD), freqüência cardíaca (FC) e o duplo produto (DP) foram mensurados em repouso, no final dos exercícios e durante os 60 minutos pós-exercício. Os resultados mostram que houve redução significativa na PAS mais rápida com maior duração (p< 0.05) para intensidade 100% de 8RM, porém sem reduções significativas na PAD para todas as intensidades (p> 0.05). Houve maiores elevações significativas na FC e no DP para 100% de 8RM em todos os momentos (p> 0.05). Conclui-se que altas intensidades (100% de 8RM) promovem hipotensão pós-exercício com respostas mais rápidas e de maior duração e eleva a FC e o DP de homens normotensos.Palavras-Chave: hipotensão pós-exercício, pressão arterial, duplo produto, frequência cardíaca Manuscript
