Acute and Training Effects of Exercise in Hypertensive Individuals

Proceedings, 2019
Aim: Aerobic, resistance, or isometric exercise has been shown to reduce blood pressure (BP) in normotensive and hypertensive individuals. The aim of this study was to examine the acute effect of combining resistance and isometric exercise and the ...

High cardiovascular reactivity and muscle strength attenuate hypotensive effects of isometric handgrip training in young women: A randomized controlled trial

Clinical and Experimental Hypertension, 2020
Objective Isometric resistance training may reduce resting blood pressure (BP); however, the magnitude of this effect varies among individual subjects and few studies attempted to predict it.

Blood pressure lowering effects of a novel isometric exercise device following a 4-week isometric handgrip intervention [PDF]

, 2019
Background: Hypertension is the leading risk factor for global mortality. Isometric resistance exercise training reduces blood pressure (BP). However, the protocols used are often limited by cost/immobility and the use of rigid exercise modalities.

The autonomic and nociceptive response to acute exercise is impaired in people with knee osteoarthritis

Neurobiology of Pain, 2023
Objectives: An acute bout of exercise typically leads to short term exercise induced hypoalgesia (EIH), but this response is more variable in many chronic pain populations, including knee osteoarthritis (OA) and fibromyalgia (FM).
