Book excerpt: Arterial stiffness increases cardiovascular disease risk for stroke, myocardial infarction, and mortality. The aim of this study was to examine the influence of resistance exercise intensity on arterial stiffness and blood pressure. Two resistance exercise conditions, low and high intensity, were compared. In a longitudinal, cross-over study design, thirty-two subjects (n=32, 17 male, mean age= 24.6) completed both conditions on separate days. Pulse wave velocity (PWV) was used as a measure of central and peripheral arterial stiffness at baseline, at 15 minutes post, and at 30 minutes post exercise. Central PWV increased in the low mode and returned toward baseline at 30 minutes post-exercise (p

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Endothelial dysfunction, or the inability of an artery to dilate sufficiently when subjected to excessive shear stress, serves both as a predictor of future cardiovascular events as well as an early indication of atherosclerosis. Several chronic disease states, including obesity, have been shown to alter endothelial function, which may be mediated through circulating pro- and anti-inflammatory adipokines. Still, the mechanisms by which obesity-related low-grade inflammation alters endothelial function are not fully elucidated. Acute and chronic endurance exercise training has previously been shown to be effective in improving endothelial function; however, chronic resistance exercise training is not universally regarded as beneficial to vascular functioning. Far fewer studies have examined the effect of acute resistance exercise on vascular function and adipokine release. To further understand the effects of resistance exercise training on vascular function, a meta-analysis was completed to examine the effects of resistance training on brachial artery flow mediated dilation (FMD), a common measure of endothelial function. The results of the meta-analysis indicate that resistance training has a small positive effect on FMD. Additionally, the effects of an acute bout of lower body resistance exercise on forearm blood flow (FBF) and two inflammatory cytokines were evaluated in obese (>30% body fat) and non-obese ([less or equal to] 30% body fat) subjects. It was hypothesized that the resistance exercise bout would increase FBF, that those changes would be greater in obese versus non-obese subjects, and that the changes in circulating cytokines (adiponectin and tumor necrosis factor-[alpha]) would be related to changes in FBF. The results indicate that FBF measures in obese and non-obese subjects react in a divergent pattern immediately following resistance exercise but return to baseline within 24 hours. These changes were not related to changes in adiponectin or TNF-[alpha] although changes in adiponectin were related to changes in TNF-[alpha]. In conclusion, resistance exercise training programs may have a small positive effect on vascular function which may reduce overall cardiovascular disease risk. Additionally, obese and non-obese subjects display differing patterns of vascular responses to an acute bout of resistance exercise, supporting the view that obesity, and its associated low-grade inflammatory response, may negatively alter vascular homeostasis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract : Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death globally. One of the most effective forms of prevention and treatment is physical activity. However, recent studies have suggested that resistance exercise can increase arterial stiffness. Maintaining adequate strength is critical for performing activities of daily living, occupational-related tasks, and sport movements. The purpose of this project was to determine if novel combinations of resistance and aerobic exercise could offer musculoskeletal benefits without adverse cardiovascular consequences. In Study 1, we examined the effect of order (i.e. aerobic before resistance, or resistance before aerobic) on arterial stiffness when combining these exercise modes in a single training session. In Study 2, we compared the effects of acute eccentric and concentric arm cycling on central and peripheral arterial stiffness. Eccentric arm cycling is a unique combination of resistance and aerobic exercise. We hypothesized that these novel combinations of resistance and aerobic exercise would not cause arterial stiffening as observed in resistance exercise alone. In Study 1, we concluded performing resistance before aerobic to be the more beneficial exercise order in terms of arterial stiffness. In Study 2, we found that eccentric arm cycling reduces arterial stiffness in the arm, but not centrally. Collectively, our results suggest that the key to reducing the negative effects of resistance exercise on arterial function is to combine it with aerobic exercise, either first within a single session or simultaneously.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the first primer on the effects of exercise on human hypertension, Effects of Exercise on Hypertension: From Cells to Physiological Systems provides the state-of-the-art effects of exercise on the many possible mechanisms underlying essential hypertension in humans. The book contains chapters by distinguished experts on the effects of exercise on physiological systems known to be involved in hypertension development and maintenance as well as less well known aspects of hypertension such as 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure profile and oxidative stress. An emerging area, the effects of resistance exercise training on blood pressure is also covered. A unique aspect of the book is that it covers the effects of exercise mimetics on vascular cell adaptations in order to begin to elucidate some of the cellular mechanisms that may underlie blood pressure reductions with exercise training. Lastly, the book will end with a chapter on the interactive effects of genes and exercise on blood pressure. Chapters are grouped by physiological system or mechanism. The text begins with two overview chapters; one on the general effects of aerobic exercise training and the second on the general effects of resistance exercise training on blood pressure. Each chapter begins with a bulleted list of key points. Effects of Exercise on Hypertension: From Cells to Physiological Systems will be of great value to professional individuals in cardiovascular medicine, the cardiovascular sciences, allied health care professionals, and medical and graduate students in the cardiovascular sciences and medicine.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The investigation was designed to determine the effect of moderate and high intensity resistance exercise (RE) on arterial stiffness (AS) . Subjects consisted of young healthy males who regularly resistance trained (N = 12) Each subject completed both the moderate and high intensity bouts in a randomized order. Pulse wave velocity (PWV) was used to estimate AS and was measured at baseline, 10 mm post, 20 mm post, and 30 mm post. Heart rate (HR) was measured during each bout to serve as a marker of sympathetic nervous system activity. A total body RE workout was completed during each bout and consisted of four free weight exercises. Significant increases (p

Book excerpt: Abstract: POSTPRANDIAL ARTERIAL STIFFNESS The purpose was to examine the effects of acute resistance exercise (RE) on postprandial arterial stiffness and wave reflection. Nine strength-trained males (age 24 ± 6.2 yrs) completed a control (CS) and exercise testing session (ES) In ES, RE (4 X 5 repetitions of squat, bench press, deadlift, barbell row at 75-80% l-RM) was performed two hrs after meal intake (440 kcal; 43% carbohydrate, 45% fat, 12% protein) . Central pulse wave velocity (carotid-femoral PWV) and radial artery pulse wave analysis derivatives [central augmentation pressure (AP) and augmentation index (AIx)] were assessed at baseline, immediately post, and at hrs 1, 2., 3, and 4 after meal intake using the SphygmoCor device and software. A 2 X 6 ANOVA with repeated measures was computed (a

This book was released on 2020 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the present study was to determine if unilateral upper-body acute RE [resistance exercise] would attenuate alterations in measures of cardiovascular function compared to bilateral upper-body acute RE. Twenty moderately active individuals completed upper-body maximal strength testing followed by two acute RE sessions. Measures of hemodynamics, autonomic modulation, central arterial stiffness, pulse wave reflection, and baroreflex sensitivity were measured at Rest and at 10- and 30-minutes during recovery. Interestingly, there were no significant condition by time interactions for any variable. Still, measures of hemodynamics, autonomic modulation, central arterial stiffness, pulse wave reflection and baroreflex sensitivity were significantly altered from Rest during recovery from upper-body acute RE. Specifically, the hemodynamic measure heart rate was augmented for at least 30 minutes. These changes were accompanied by alterations in measures of autonomic modulation specific to vagal activity, which were predominantly attenuated for at least 30 minutes. Further, central arterial stiffness was increased and measures of pulse wave reflection in terms of the pulse waveform were also augmented for at least 10 and 30 minutes, respectively. Other pulse wave reflection measures indicative of left ventricular function suggested an increase in myocardial workload and decrease in coronary blood flow for at least 30 minutes. Further, baroreflex sensitivity was reduced for at least 30 minutes. Collectively, this study suggests that unilateral upper-body acute RE does not seem to be an appropriate upper-body acute RE modality to reduce cardiovascular modulation compared to bilateral RE. Nevertheless, both modalities significantly altered cardiovascular function.

This book was released on 2021 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: Elevated arterial stiffness has been recognized as an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease and has been associated with long-term worse clinical outcomes in several populations. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of gender and time following one acute bout of moderate intensity resistance exercise on arterial stiffness in college-aged men and women. A total of 26 men (n = 14) and women (n = 12) completed three sessions: screening, familiarization, and testing in the order they are listed. There were no changes in pulse wave velocity or augmentation index in either men or women across time. Men did have significantly higher systolic blood pressure at baseline (p = .00, d =1.4), immediately post exercise (p = .01, d = 1.0) and 30 minutes post exercise (p = .04, d = .08) relative to women. Men also had significantly higher heart rates immediately post exercise (p = .02, d = 0.9) and 30 minutes post exercise (p = .04, p = 0.9) when compared to women. The lack of change in parameters of arterial stiffness suggest moderate intensity exercise does not increase arterial stiffness in college-aged adults.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: The study was designed to determine the effects of acute resistance exercise on heart rate variability (HRV) and central blood pressure (CBP) in women, specifically during the recovery period. Eight physically active, overweight women with an average body mass index (BMI) of 27.16 ± 1.76 kg/m2, who were also untrained in regards to resistance exercise, participated in the study. Subjects completed three study sessions. During the first session, subject descriptive data was obtained and a familiarization of the resistance protocol was conducted. Sessions two and three consisted of either a control or the total body resistance exercise session. HRV and CBP values were obtained at the beginning of the session and at multiple time points during the recovery time period, totaling 60 min. The primary finding was the significantly decreased HRV component, SDNN (standard deviation of N-N's) for 20 min following acute resistance exercise followed by a return of values back to baseline at the end of recovery. The depression of HRV was expected after resistance exercise, however the current study has demonstrated the extent of the effect of the exercise in untrained, overweight women. Both CBP and peripheral blood pressure did not show significant differences between conditions and time. Post exercise hypotension was expected after exercise, but did not occur in the present study. The current study demonstrated a short effect of acute resistance exercise on HRV, but not blood pressure values. HRV values returned to baseline at the end of recovery.
