TABLE 3.
Heart rate (HR) and blood pressure (BP) before and after the ultra-endurance exercise (n=9; the values are mean ±SEM).
| Pre-race | Immediately post-race | After 90 min of recovery | |
|---|---|---|---|
| HR (beats·min−1) | 58 ± 3.0 | 84 ± 2.0* | 78 ± 3.0*† |
| SBP (mm Hg) | 132 ± 4.0 | 114 ± 4.0 | 121 ± 5.0 |
| DBP (mm Hg) | 85 ± 2.0 | 74 ± 2.0 | 78 ± 3.0*† |
Note: SBP– systolic blood pressure, DBP – diastolic blood pressure
*
significant differences from the resting values: P < 0.05.
†
significant differences from the immediately post-race values: P < 0.05.
