Understanding Hypertension: Types, Risks, and Exercise Recommendations

Hypertension, or high blood pressure, affects approximately 65 million Americans, presenting a significant risk for cardiovascular disease, stroke, heart failure, and chronic kidney disease. This informative video outlines the three stages of hypertension: prehypertension, stage 1, and stage 2, and discusses risk factors, including family history and diet. Effective exercise prescriptions are provided for managing blood pressure, emphasizing the benefits of both aerobic and resistance training. Learn how to reduce your risk and maintain heart health through informed lifestyle choices.

  3. What is Hypertension? • High blood pressure • 3 types • Prehypertension: 120-139 80-89 • Stage 1: 140-159 90-99 • Stage 2: >160 >100

  4. Quick Facts • ~65 million Americans have hypertension • Leads to increased risk of • CVD • Stroke • Heart Failure • Peripheral Artery Disease • Chronic Kidney Disease • Sometimes called Silent Killer

  5. Who’s at Risk? • > Risk if family member has it • Diabetes=More likely • 60% have hypertension • African-Americans • Those who have a high sodium diet

  6. Why Hypertension? • How prevalent it is • Future career

  7. Population Studied • 22 participants • ≥60 years young • BMI between 20 and 34.9

  8. Hypothesis • The highest volume resistance exercise plan would promote a post exercise blood pressure reduction of a greater magnitude and duration then the lower volume resistance exercise plan.

  9. How was the Hypothesis Tested? • 3 sessions • 1st session= control w/ rest of 40 mins • 2ndsession= low volume and intensity. Circuit w/ 10 exercises lasted ~20 mins • 3rd session=high volume and low intensity. Circuit w/ 10 exercises through twice ~40 mins

  10. Results • Hypothesis correct • Both yielded positive results • Higher volume= blood pressure reduction for 24 hrs after

  11. Exercise Prescription • Classified as moderate risk • Age • High blood pressure • Don’t need medical evaluation before moderate exercise • Recommended a doctor be present for maximal tests

  12. Exercise Prescription • Frequency • Aerobic: 6 days /wk • Resistance: 2 days/wk • Intensity • Moderate: 40%-60% VO2R • 3-6 METS • 12-14 RPE (Based on 6-20 scale)

  13. Exercise Prescription • Type • Aerobic: main focus • Resistance: target all major muscle groups • Time • 30-60 mins continuous or in 10 mins bouts • 8-10 exercises one set each

  14. Exercise Prescription • Resistance • Monday and Thursday • No power and free weights • 2 sets 15 reps • 8 exercises: major muscle groups • 30 secs rest

  15. Exercise Prescription • Aerobic • 5 days/wk • Monday-Saturday • 30 Minutes • Increase duration after 3 weeks
