Abstract: 

Strength training (ST) is highly recommended for international institutes to promote health improves. Additionally, after ST any studies have evidenced hypotension post-exercise (HPE), however it is not a consensus. The objective of this study was to investigate the subacute blood pressure (BP) impacts after a maximal and submaximal strength exercise session in healthy young. This was an experimental study, in a randomized crossover design carried out on 39 heath untrained young 20.8±2years, 64.0±10.9kg, 170.2±7.09cm e 21.9±2.4 kg/m2. After a maximal and submaximal strength test in 3 exercises: Biceps curl, Bench press, and knee extension, the participants carried out 3 protocols: Maximal Protocol (MaxP), Submaximal Protocol (SubP) and a Control Protocol (CP). In the MaxP, the individuals carried out 3sets of 1 Repetition Maximum (RM); in the SubP carried out 3sets of 10RM; and CP did not exercise. Immediately after each protocol, the BP was measured, and in 10, 20 and 30 minutes after. The systolic BP increased immediately after both exercise sessions, but without significance. In the other moments, the BP did not alter.
