Endothelial dysfunction is now considered an important early event in the development of
atherosclerosis, which precedes gross morphological signs and clinical symptoms. The …

Evidence for the benefits of regular exercise is irrefutable and increasing physical activity
levels should be a major goal at all levels of health care. People with hypertension are less …

Hypertension, or the chronic elevation in resting arterial blood pressure (BP), is a significant
risk factor for cardiovascular disease and estimated to affect~ 1 billion adults worldwide. The …

The effects of inactivity and exercise training on established and novel cardiovascular risk
factors are relatively modest and do not account for the impact of inactivity and exercise on …

Low-volume sprint interval training (SIT), or repeated sessions of brief, intense intermittent
exercise, elicits metabolic adaptations that resemble traditional high-volume endurance …

Although the effects of exercise training on vascular function have been well studied, less is
known about the effects of acute exercise bouts. This synthesis summarizes and integrates …

The benefits of aerobic exercise (AE) training on blood pressure (BP) and arterial stiffness
are well established, but the effects of resistance training are less well delineated. The …

It is established that regular aerobic training improves vascular function, for example,
endothelium‐dependent vasodilatation and arterial stiffness or compliance and thereby …

Hypertension is characterized by elevated blood pressure (BP) and autonomic dysfunction,
both thought to be improved with exercise training. Isometric handgrip (IHG) training may …

Skeletal muscle contractions are associated with physical stimuli that act upon muscle
vasculature, including increased shear stress and blood pressure. It is unclear if acute …
