Successful prevention and treatment of hypertension depend on the appropriate combination of antihypertensive drug therapy and nondrug lifestyle modification. While most hypertension guidelines recommend moderate- to high-intensity exercise, we decided to explore a mild yet effective type of exercise to add to hypertension management, especially in populations with complications or frailty. After comparing the short-term cardiovascular effects of low-speed walking versus high-speed walking for 3 kilometers (km) (3 km/h versus 6 km/h) in young, healthy volunteers, we delivered low-speed walking (low-intensity walking, 2.5 metabolic equivalents of task, METs) as exercise therapy in 42 prehypertensive and 43 hypertensive subjects. We found that one session of 3 km low-intensity walking exerted a transient pressure-lowering effect as well as a mild negative chronotropic effect on heart rate in both the prehypertensive and hypertensive subjects; these short-term benefits on blood pressure and heart rate were accompanied by a brief increase in urine β-endorphin output. Then we prescribed regular low-intensity walking with a target exercise dose (exercise volume) of 500-1000 METs·min/week (50-60 min/day and 5-7 times/week) in hypertensive subjects in addition to their daily activities. Regular low-intensity walking also showed mild but significant blood pressure-lowering and heart rate-reducing effects in 7 hypertensive subjects within two months. It is hypothesized that regular low-intensity exercise of the necessary dose could be taken as a pragmatic and supplementary medication for hypertension management.

低强度步行作为高血压前期和高血压患者压力控制的温和药物:我们应该走多远?

高血压的成功预防和治疗取决于降压药物治疗和非药物生活方式改变的适当组合。虽然大多数高血压指南建议进行中高强度运动,但我们决定探索一种温和而有效的运动类型,以增加高血压管理,尤其是在有并发症或虚弱的人群中。在比较了年轻健康志愿者低速步行与高速步行 3 公里(3 公里/小时与 6 公里/小时)对心血管的短期影响后,我们提供了低速步行(低-强度步行,2.5 代谢当量的任务,METs)作为 42 名高血压前期和 43 名高血压受试者的运动疗法。我们发现,在高血压前期和高血压受试者中,一次 3 公里的低强度步行对心率产生短暂的降压作用以及轻微的负性变时作用;这些对血压和心率的短期益处伴随着尿β-内啡肽输出的短暂增加。然后,除了日常活动外,我们还规定高血压受试者定期进行低强度步行,目标运动剂量(运动量)为 500-1000 METs·min/周(50-60 分钟/天和 5-7 次/周) . 在两个月内,7 名高血压患者的常规低强度步行也显示出轻微但显着的降血压和降低心率的作用。
