Aerobic Exercise and Resistant Hypertension

This study will examine the effects of 4 months of aerobic interval training versus continuous aerobic training on ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) and novel plasma protein biomarkers in patients with resistant hypertension. A randomized controlled trial will be performed including two exercise groups and a control group: a) moderate-intensity interval training (MIIT); b) moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT); c) usual care. MIIT could represent a superior training modality that exceeds the benefits of MICT in patients with resistant hypertension.
