Table 3. Comparison between HR, SBP, DBP and PP at 80% of peak VO2 during Balke incremental walking test and immediately after eight resistance exercises (average) MS test. Data are means (±SD).

 

80% of peak VO2

MS test

HR (bpm)

96.9 (12.8)

86.9 (12.7)*

SBP (mmHg)

131.8 (23.1)

118.3 (15.1)*

DBP (mmHg)
