Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of 12-week walking exercise on arterial blood pressure(BP) in postmenopausal women. The 13 postmenopausal women with high normal or stageⅠ (Resting systolic BP/diastolic BP; 148±4.3 mmHg/96±3.1mmHg) were volunteered for this study (Age; 56.8±1.8 yr, Height; 154.3±2.0 cm, Body Weight; 64.9±3.0 kg). The walking program was treadmill walking and running for 30-60 min/4-days/12-weeks. The walking distance was progressively increased for whole training period (pre; 1600.9±88.3m/day, 6wks; 3651.0±257.7m/day, 12wks; 4818.5±261.8m/day, p<0.05). The maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) was significantly increased during training (pre; 22.7±0.6 ml/kg/min, 6wks; 24.1±0.7 ml/kg/min, 12wks; 25.3±0.7 ml/kg/min, p<0.05). The resting arterial blood pressures at 6-week training were significantly reduced in comparison with blood pressures prior to training (Systolic BP; -6 mmHg, Diastolic BP; -4 mmHg, p<0.05) and further significantly decreased at 12 weeks of exercise compared to blood pressures at 6 week of training (Systolic BP; -6 mmHg, p< 0.05). The plasma insulin level was significantly reduced during 12-week training period. but plasma glucose and lipids were not significantly changed during 12-week training period. Therefore, the results of this study suggest that 12-week walking exercise can significantly reduce the arterial blood pressures in postmenopausal hypertensive women.
