Abstract
Background: Cardiac sympathovagal balance is altered after resistance exercise. However, the impact of the characteristics of resistance training in this response remains unclear. Objective: Analyze the acute effect of resistance exercise intensity for trunk and upper limbs in cardiac autonomic modulation after exercise. Methods: Fifteen young men performed three experimental sessions in random order: control (C), resistance exercise with 50% of 1-RM (E50%) and resistance exercise with 70% of 1-RM (E70%). The sessions included 05 exercises for the trunk and upper limbs performed in three sets of 12, 9 and 6 repetitions, respectively. Before and at 20 and 50 minutes after the interventions, the heart rate was measured for spectral analysis of variability. Results: In comparison to the values before the intervention, the RR interval and the band of high frequency (HF) increased (major changes: + 112±83 ms; +10±11 un, respectively, p less than 0.01), while the low frequency band (LF) and LF/HF ratio decreased (major changes: -10±11 pc; -2±2, respectively, p less than 0.01) after the session C. None of these variables changed significantly after the E50% session (p> 0.05). Compared to pre-exercise values, the RR interval and the HF band decreased (major changes: -69±105 ms; -13±14 un, respectively, p less than 0.01), while the LF band and the LF/HF ratio increased (major changes: -13±14 un, 13±3 14±3 and un, respectively, p less than 0.01) after E70%. Conclusion: The higher intensity of resistance exercise for trunk and upper limbs promoted, in an acute manner, greater increase in cardiac sympathovagal balance after exercise.
