5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study was to examine the impacts of a 12-week resistance band exercise program on body composition, aging-related hormones, and blood pressure in postmenopausal women with stage 1 hypertension. Twenty postmenopausal women with hypertension participated in this study. Participants were randomly allocated into the resistance band training group (EX, n = 10) or the control group (CON, n = 10). The EX group performed a resistance band exercise training program at jump rope training program at 40-70% of their heart rate reserve (HRR) 5 days/week for 12 weeks (sessions 60 minutes in duration). The CON group did not participate in any exercise, dietary, or behavioral intervention. Body composition, aging-related hormones (growth hormone, insulin-like growth factor 1, dehydroepiandrosterone, and estradiol), and blood pressure were measured before and after the 12-weeks study.
