Systematic Review of Long-Term Resistance Training Effects on Blood Pressure

A systematic review analyzing 22 studies from databases including Medline, Science Direct, Scopus, Web of Science, and Lilacs. The study compares traditional resistance training (TRT) with combined resistance and aerobic training (CRT) for blood pressure reduction. The analysis followed the PRISMA checklist and was conducted by Paulo Eduardo Carnaval Pereira da Rocha.

Use Cases

• Comparing the efficacy of different exercise modalities for blood pressure management based on the systematic review findings.
• Informing the design of future clinical trials on resistance training based on identified methodological gaps.
• Developing evidence-based exercise guidelines for hypertension based on the analysis of training variables like sets, repetitions, and intensity.

Strengths

• Analysis is based on 22 studies identified from a search of 751 articles across multiple academic databases.
• The review methodology followed the PRISMA checklist for systematic reviews and meta-analyses.
• Explicitly compares two distinct resistance training models: traditional (TRT) and combined with aerobic exercise (CRT).

Limitations

• The underlying data (individual study results) is not directly provided, only the review's analysis.
• Row count and specific data formats for the reviewed studies are unknown.
• The last update date for the review is unknown, which may affect freshness.
