Regular exercise as an effective approach in antihypertensive therapy

Article Abstract:

A study was done to determine the effects of a long term endurance training program on arterial pressure in hypertensive subjects. The results concluded that in hypertensive patients, a moderate regular aerobic exercise program resulted in a continuous and long-term decrease in both systolic and diastolic pressure at rest and during exercise.

Reliability of time to exhaustion analyzed with critical-power and log-log modeling

Article Abstract:

The large variability of time to exhaustion between repeated tests at constant power output or speed gives an impression that these tests are unsuitable for monitoring athletic performance. This issue is addressed using critical-power and log-log models of the speed-duration relationship to analyze treadmill runs.

Spectral analysis of heart rate variability during exercise in trained subjects

Article Abstract:

The effects of strenuous exercise on heart rate variability (HRV) are investigated. HRV and the usual indexes of sympathetic activity do dot accurately reflect changes in autonomic modulation during exhaustive exercise.
