Study Design: Experimental study design.Background: Aerobic training and resistance training are the two treatment technique used in reducing systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and heart rate. There is limited evidence for comparison of aerobic training and resistance training in reducing systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and heart rate. Purpose of study:To establish the effect of aerobic training and resistance training on blood pressure in hypertensive patients.Method: Total numbers of thirty patients were randomly assigned to receive either aerobic training or resistance training. Systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and heart rate were taken at baseline, 3 rd week and 6 th week in both the groups. Result:In both the group significant improvement occurred in aerobic training and resistance training. Between groups analysis there was significant improvement in aerobic training when compared with resistance training. Conclusion:Both aerobic and resistance training were found to be effective in reducing systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and heart rate. But aerobic training is more effective in reducing systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and heart rate when compared with resistance training.
