Previous issue date: 2010-06-30 / The results of studies about the ideal resistance training intensity for reduction of resting blood pressure levels, as well as this type of training to increase the functional capacity of hypertensive older women are still unclear, since the few investigations usually analyze young individuals normotensive, and the literature lacks precise information in elderly hypertensive subjects. Objectives: To determine the effect of two resistance training intensities on resting blood pressure and the effect of resistance training on functional capacity in elderly women with systemic arterial hypertension, analyzing these variables before and after eight weeks of intervention. Methods: Patients underwent eight weeks of resistance training, with a frequency of three times per week on alternate days, in the afternoon. The exercises performed were: leg press, bench press, knee extension, lat pull-down, knee flexion, shoulder abduction, standing cable hip abduction and biceps curl. Results: It was found that patients who underwent training with moderate resistance, showed a reduction on resting values of diastolic blood pressure (DBP) p<0.03 and of mean arterial pressure (MAP) p<0.03. Patients who underwent mild resistance training showed reduction in resting values of MAP (p<0.03) and a tendency to decrease in DBP (p<0.06). With regard to functional capacity, the results showed significant increase in the strength of arms and legs, agility and aerobic endurance (p<0.001) and maintaining flexibility (p>0.05). Conclusion: The data indicated that both mild and moderate resistance training, even when started in old age, promoted cardiovascular benefits and also improve the functional capacity of hypertensive older women. / Os resultados dos estudos sobre a intensidade ideal do treinamento resistido para redu??o dos n?veis press?ricos de repouso, assim como, desse tipo de treinamento sobre o aumento da capacidade funcional de idosas hipertensas ainda s?o obscuros, uma vez que as poucas investiga??es realizadas geralmente analisam indiv?duos jovens normotensos, sendo a literatura carente de informa??o precisa em sujeitos idosos hipertensos. Objetivos: Verificar a repercuss?o de duas intensidades de treinamento resistido sobre a press?o arterial de repouso al?m do efeito do treinamento resistido na capacidade funcional de idosas portadoras da HAS (hipertens?o arterial sist?mica) analisando estas vari?veis antes e ap?s oito semanas de interven??o. M?todos: As pacientes realizaram oito semanas de treinamento resistido, com freq??ncia de tr?s vezes por semana em dias alternados, no per?odo vespertino. Os exerc?cios realizados foram respectivamente: leg press, supino reto, extens?o de joelhos puxada frontal, flex?o de joelhos, abdu??o de membros superiores, abdu??o unilateral de quadril e rosca direta com barra. Resultados: Verificou-se que as pacientes que realizaram treinamento com resist?ncia moderada, apresentaram redu??o tanto nos valores de repouso da press?o arterial diast?lica (PAD) p<0,03 como na press?o arterial m?dia (PAM) p<0,03. As pacientes que realizaram treinamento leve apresentaram redu??o nos valores de repouso da PAM (p<0,03) e tend?ncia ? redu??o na PAD (p<0,06). Quanto ? capacidade funcional, os resultados mostraram aumento significativo da for?a de membros superiores e inferiores, agilidade e endurance aer?bica (p<0,001) e manuten??o da flexibilidade (p>0,05). Conclus?o: Os dados mostraram que tanto o treinamento resistido moderado quanto o leve, mesmo quando iniciados na terceira idade, promoveram benef?cios cardiovasculares e tamb?m na capacidade funcional de idosas hipertensas.
