Life scientists from the University of Canterbury in the UK conducted a data analysis of existing evidence from clinical trials, and the results showed that static isometric exercise (which can mobilize muscles without moving the body) is the best way to lower blood pressure. At the same time, aerobic exercise, dynamic resistance training (such as squats, push ups, and weightlifting), and high-intensity interval training are also effective. The conclusion of this study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine is that isometric exercise is the most effective mode of reducing systolic and diastolic blood pressure. It laid the foundation for the development of new exercise guidelines for the prevention and treatment of arterial hypertension. In order to update information on the optimal form of exercise for controlling blood pressure, researchers searched the database for clinical trials on the impact of exercise training interventions lasting two weeks or more on resting blood pressure. Exercise interventions are classified as aerobic exercise, dynamic resistance training, a combination of the two, high-intensity interval training (HIIT), and isometric exercise. The analysis results showed that after all different types of exercise, the participants' resting systolic and diastolic blood pressure significantly decreased, but after isometric exercise training, the decrease in systolic and diastolic blood pressure was the largest. Specifically, the blood pressure reduction after aerobic exercise was 4.49/2.53mmHg, the blood pressure reduction after dynamic resistance training was 4.55/3.04mmHg, combined with the blood pressure reduction after training was 6.04/2.54mmHg, the blood pressure reduction after high-intensity interval training was 4.08/2.50mmHg, and the blood pressure reduction after isometric training was 8.24/4mmHg. The order of effectiveness values for reducing systolic blood pressure is equal length training (98%), combination training (76%), dynamic resistance training (46%), aerobic training (40.5%), and HIIT (39%). Secondary analysis showed that squatting against the wall (isometric training) and running (aerobic exercise) were the most effective individual exercises to reduce systolic blood pressure (90.5%) and diastolic blood pressure (91%), respectively. Overall, isometric exercise is the most effective in reducing systolic and diastolic blood pressure. (New News Agency)
