Hypertension
Conditions
Interventions
The sample of hypertensive women, older than 45 years of age, who will be randomly divided into three groups: Control group (without exercise), Group 1 moderate load resistance training
Group 2 High load resistance training.
Group 1 will perform the training with 15 repetitions maximum and low load, in 3 weight training exercises. Group 2 will perform the training with 6 repetitions

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Decrease of 5 millimeters of mercury in central or aortic blood pressure, measured using the non-invasive method of applanation tonometry. Data collected before and after a session of two resistance training protocols. Two resistance training protocols were also collected before and after 12 weeks.;Decrease of 5 millimeters of mercury in outpatient blood pressure, measured through 24-hour ambulatory monitoring of brachial blood pressure. Data collected after a session of two resistance training protocols. Two resistance training protocols were also collected before and after 12 weeks. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Decrease of 3 meters per second or 3 percent in central arterial stiffness (carotid femoral pulse wave speed and Augmentation index) Measured using the non-invasive method of applanation tonometry. Data collected before and after a session of two resistance training protocols. Two resistance training protocols were also collected before and after 12 weeks.;Decrease of 5 millimeters of mercury in clinical blood pressure, oscillometric measurement of brachial blood pressure. Data collected before and after a session of two resistance training protocols. Two resistance training protocols were also collected before and after 12 weeks.;5 beats per minute decrease in outpatient heart rate, measured through 24-hour ambulatory heart rate monitoring Data collected after a session of two resistance training protocols. Two resistance training protocols were also collected before and after 12 weeks. | — |
