Abstract

Exercise helps to manage high blood pressure in most circumstances and should be encouraged in both hypertensive athletes and active individuals with this disease. Many physiologic mechanisms have been proposed that explain this benefit. Presently, it appears from both human and animal studies that exercise of moderate intensity may be optimal for control of high blood pressure. Exercise testing for the future prediction of hypertension is an intriguing concept, but more data needs to be gathered before screening can be recommended. Verf.-Referat
