Abstract
Cardiac rehabilitation programs including aerobic and resistance training improve quality of life, physical function and exercise capacity (average increase of 5.2 ml/kg/min). Resistance training increases muscle strength (from 20% 1-RM to 80%), endurance, and exercise performance.
The acute response during resistance training is an increased blood pressure and heart rate due to higher pressure response. This response is based on load and intensity.The Valsalva maneuver should be avoided as it may increase this response.
Individuals with untreated HTN experienced 5mmHg decrease SBP and 3mmHg decrease DBP.
It is the combination of aerobic exercise with resistance training that is more beneficial for cardiac patients. This allows for increase muscle strength as well as increased cardiorespiratory health.
