Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of long-term regular exercise participation on circadian blood pressure rhythm. This study subjects included twenty four middle aged women with a regular exercise participation of over three times a week for at least five years and other twelve middle aged women with few exercise habit during their daily lives. All parameters were analysed every 30minutes from 07:00 am to 10:00 pm for daytime blood pressure and every one hour from 10:00 pm to 07:00 am the next day for nighttime blood pressure. The results was as follow. SBP, DBP, MAP, HR were significantly lower nighttime than daytime between exercise group and non-exercise group. Regular exercise resulted in significant decrease in blood pressure. Baseline systolic and diastolic blood pressure were significantly lower exercise group than non-exercise group. In conclusion, this study showed that normal circadian blood pressure rhythm in middle aged women. Regular exercise participation showed positive effects on circadian blood pressure rhythm. It also preventing and delaying cardiovascular disease by reducing the prevalence of adult diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, and obesity. Therefore, it is important to correct ones life habit and work out regularly to prevent cardiovascular disease and development of regular and systematic exercise prescription programs for prehypertensive middle aged women is highly needed.
