Abstract

Purpose

Although acute high-intensity resistance exercise to exhaustion decreases arterial compliance and increases arterial stiffness, the effect of low-intensity resistance exercise (LRE) to exhaustion on arterial compliance and stiffness remains unknown. The present study investigated the acute effects of LRE on arterial compliance and stiffness.

Methods

Ten healthy individuals (age 26 ± 5 years) performed LRE (40 % of 1 repetition maximum) and control (CON: seated rest in the exercise room) trials on separate days in a randomized controlled crossover fashion. The LRE comprised three sets of bench presses to exhaustion with an inter-set rest period of 2 min. In the CON trial, LRE was not performed. Carotid arterial compliance, the β-stiffness index (via simultaneous B-mode ultrasound and applanation tonometry), carotid and brachial blood pressure and heart rate were measured before and at 30 and 60 min after both trials.

Results

Carotid arterial compliance and the β-stiffness index significantly increased and decreased, respectively (both P < 0.05), at 30 and 60 min after the LRE trials, but neither significantly differed after the CON trials. Carotid and brachial blood pressure and heart rate did not change at 30 and 60 min after both trials from baseline.

Conclusion

These results suggest that LRE acutely increases arterial compliance and decreases arterial stiffness.
