Effects of weight on blood pressure at rest and during exercise

Abstract: Body weight (BW) and blood pressure (BP) have a close relationship, which has been accounted for by hormonal changes. No previous study has evaluated the effect of wearing an external weight vest on BP to determine whether there is a simple mechanism between BW and BP. Seventeen healthy volunteers underwent weight reduction (WR) through caloric restriction. Before and after WR, BW, body fat percentage and BP at rest and during exercise were measured. Before and after WR, exercise testing was performed twice wi… Show more

“…In the control group, there was a correlation between the increase in the parameters such as heart rate and systolic and diastolic blood pressure. The literature data suggest that blood pressure should increase with increasing heart rate [33]. The above results were also con rmed by the results in the control group.…”

“… 55 , 58 , 59 The implications of these findings are significant, given that a large proportion of the world population is hypertensive and obese; therefore, maintaining a normal BMI could lead in many cases to a greater hypotensive effect following an exercise session. 60 …”

“…Além disso, o acúmulo exacerbado de tecido adiposo traz consigo um volume de lipídios circulantes para locais ectópicos, fazendo com que este armazenamento em volta e penetrados na massa muscular promova uma perda da funcionalidade do músculo, reduzindo a capacidade de conceber força (ROLLAND et al, 2008). Portanto, manter um IMC normal pode favorecer um efeito hipotensor maior após o esforço físico (SCHOENENBERGER et al, 2013). Essa informação corrobora os resultados da nossa pesquisa, pois a amostra apresentou altos valores de %G e IMC, o que pode ter influenciado na pequena queda da PAS após a realização dos testes físico-funcionais.…”
