Acute Blood Pressure Response to Different Resistance Programs in Trained Men

Comparison Between Traditional and Alternated Resistance Exercises on Blood Pressure, Acute Neuromuscular Responses, and Rating of Perceived Exertion in Recreationally Resistance-Trained Men

“…Blood pressure reductions were found throughout different post-exercise times (e.g., Post-10, Post-20, Post-30, Post-40, Post-50, and Post-60) when compared with immediately postexercise time. Blood pressure reduction did not indicate significance in relation to the hypotensive responses, considering that the immediately postexercise recovery requires a few seconds and reflects an expected physiological response in healthy subjects (10,22). Thus, a BP reduction during recovery when compared with that time did not demonstrate either recovery to the peak exercise value or comparison with rest.…”

“…An analysis of the BP responses after 2 RT methods (German volume training, GVT; and sarcoplasma stimulating training, SST) was previously conducted (10). The authors observed BP reductions only when compared with the immediately post-RT and no difference when compared with the rest, which would mischaracterize the postexercise hypotension (10). Blood pressure reductions were found throughout different post-exercise times (e.g., Post-10, Post-20, Post-30, Post-40, Post-50, and Post-60) when compared with immediately postexercise time.…”

“…Limited studies aimed to analyze the BP responses after performing different RT conditions. An analysis of the BP responses after 2 RT methods (German volume training, GVT; and sarcoplasma stimulating training, SST) was previously conducted (10). The authors observed BP reductions only when compared with the immediately post-RT and no difference when compared with the rest, which would mischaracterize the postexercise hypotension (10).…”
