Abstract
Summary Objective To investigate the effect of music auditory stimulation on cardiorespiratory parameters in recovery from exercise. Methods Thirty-five healthy men underwent an experimental protocol with three steps: maximal exercise test, control protocol and music protocol. The control protocol consisted of 15 minutes of rest, followed by 30 minutes of exercise on a treadmill and 60 minutes of recovery. In the music protocol volunteers were exposed to music auditory stimulation during exercise and recovery from exercise. We analyzed the following parameters: heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate and blood oxygen level during the initial rest stage and recovery. Results Statistical differences in heart rate between rest and post exercise (P Conclusion Music auditory stimulation accelerated the recovery of heart rate and systolic blood pressure, however we can not state that this method alone can improve recovery after exercise in healthy subjects.
