Sažetak
Objective It has been shown that obesity is risk factor for development of hypertension, as well as mass of body fat. Blood pressure changes following exercise are useful for assessing risk of hypertension in nonhypertensive subjects, but the role of body composition is still unclear. The aim of this study is to find out if there is difference in changes of blood pressure after aerobic exercise between categories classified according to percent of body fat and according to body mass index. Design and Methods Differences in change of systolic and diastolic blood pressure following performance of standard Cooper treadmill test were investigated for this purpose. Thirty nonhypertensive people (15 male and 15 females), mean age 20 years, who volunteered for study, were measured for height and weight by standard methods, and analyzed for body composition using bioelectrical impedance method. Subjects were classified according to percent of body fat, and according to body mass index. Systolic and diastolic blood pressure was measured at rest and after performing Cooper treadmill test. Results Results showed that differences in change of systolic blood pressure between sexes are influenced by percent of body fat category (p=0.035), and not by body mass index category (p=0.852). There was difference in systolic blood pressure at rest between categories according to BMI (p=0.023), and differences in systolic blood pressure after exercise between categories of BMI (p=0.003), as well as between sexes (p=0.028) and those influences were not related mutually (p=0.272). While we found no correlation of body composition to changes in diastolic blood pressure, difference in systolic blood pressure was correlated to percent of body fat (r=-0.428, p=0.018) and to soft lean mass (r=0.415, p=0.022), as well as to VO2max (r=0.414, p=0.023). Conclusion Based on these results we conclude that body composition is important factor in predicting changes in blood pressure following single bout of aerobic exercise in healthy young people.
