Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The research aims to compare two different exercise approaches applied to hypertensive individuals. After completion of the research, it will be revealed which exercise approach is more effective on the parameters evaluated in hypertensive individuals. In this context, it is aimed to increase the use of the exercise approach, which is found to be more effective in hypertensive individuals, in the treatment program.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Exercise is an important lifestyle change in treating and controlling hypertension. The International Society of Hypertension recommends increasing physical activity in the long term as a lifestyle intervention to improve blood pressure control and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease in hypertensive individuals. Regular exercise appears to reduce drug use as part of lifestyle change in the treatment of hypertension. The risk of developing hypertension in individuals with a sedentary lifestyle is higher than in individuals who engage in regular physical activity.

In addition, new exercise programs such as mat pilates exercises are also applied to hypertensive individuals. Mat pilates exercises are a resistance exercise method used worldwide, especially for middle-aged individuals who do not engage in regular physical activity. In addition, Mat pilates exercises have promising effects, reducing short-term systolic blood pressure by 7.4 mmHg and long-term resting systolic blood pressure by 5.8-7.6 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure by 3.3-3.6 mmHg. These data require further research on the use of mat pilates exercises in hypertensive individuals.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Aerobic Exercise Group

Individuals in this group will perform aerobic exercise training on a treadmill/bicycle under the supervision of a physiotherapist for a period of 8 weeks, consisting of a total of 24 training sessions. Moderate intensity aerobic exercise training will be set by calculating the target heart rate range. During the training session, individuals will receive a total of 50 minutes of training, consisting of a 10-minute warm-up, 30 minutes of moderate walking/cycling and a 10-minute cool-down period. In addition to the aerobic exercise training group, on the days he does not come to the session, resistance exercises will be taught in the form of 2 sets of 8 repetitions, with weights of 60-80% of 1 maximum repetition, according to the guidelines of the American Sports Medicine Association, and will be given as home exercises.

Mat Pilates Exercise Group

Individuals in this group will perform mat pilates exercises under the supervision of a physiotherapist for a period of 8 weeks, consisting of a total of 24 exercise sessions. During the exercise sessions, individuals will undergo a 50-minute mat pilates exercise program. In addition to the mat pilates exercise group, on the days when he does not come to the session, resistance exercises will be taught in the form of 2 sets of 8 repetitions, 60-80% of 1 maximum repetition, according to the guidelines of the American Sports Medicine Association, and will be given as home exercises.
