Parkhurst, K. Dhindsa, M. Tarumi, T. Artikel Schwimmen Herz Blutdruck Kreislauf Gesundheit Gesundheitssport Alter Masterssport Artikel Nualnim, N. Parkhurst, K. Dhindsa, M. Tarumi, T. 50 years old (60 ± 2) with prehypertension or stage 1 hypertension and not on any medication were randomly assigned to 12 weeks of swimming exercise or attention time controls. Before the intervention period there were no significant differences in any of the variables between groups. Body mass, adiposity, and plasma concentrations of glucose and cholesterol did not change in either group throughout the intervention period. Casual systolic BP decreased significantly from 131 ± 3 to 122 ± 4 mm Hg in the swimming training group. Significant decreases in systolic BP were also observed in ambulatory (daytime) and central (carotid) BP measurements. Swimming exercise produced a 21% increase in carotid artery compliance (p <0.05). Flow-mediated dilation and cardiovagal baroreflex sensitivity improved after the swim training program (p <0.05). There were no significant changes in any measurements in the control group that performed gentle relaxation exercises. In conclusion, swimming exercise elicits hypotensive effects and improvements in vascular function in previously sedentary older adults.]]> 0 Sun, 01 Jan 2012 01:31:26 +0100 https://sponet.de/sponet/Record/4025079 https://sponet.de/sponet/Record/4025079 Nualnim, N.
