Taekwondo Training Reduces Blood Catecholamine Levels and Arterial Stiffness in Postmenopausal Women With Stage-2 Hypertension

Kosin University·interventional·Posted Jun 1, 2018·Updated Nov 10, 2020

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Taekwondo training for Menopause and Hypertension. Completed, enrolled 20 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

Aging is associated with hormonal imbalances and progressive decreases in arterial health and function. It is crucial to prevent or reduce the negative effects of aging on hormonal balance and the vasculature by implementing appropriate lifestyle interventions, such as exercise training. We examined the effects of a 12-week Taekwondo training program on blood catecholamines, arterial stiffness (pulse wave velocity, PWV), blood pressure (BP), resting heart rate, and muscular strength in postmenopausal women with stage 2 hypertension.
