Abstract

Abstract : This study analyzed the reproducibility of ambulatory blood pressure (BP) after high-intensity interval training (HIIT) sessions. Seventeen normotensive men (23.5±2.4 years) underwent two HIIT and two control sessions separated by 7–10 days. Ambulatory BP monitoring devices were used for 20 h. The intraclass correlation coefficient of BP in the awake and asleep periods ranged from 0.836 to 0.942 in the HIIT ( P <0.05) and from 0.777 to 0.974 in the control sessions ( P <0.05). The bias, limits of agreement, and pattern of distribution of awake BP were similar between HIIT and control sessions. However, for asleep BP, the bias and limits of agreement were not similar between HIIT and control sessions. In conclusion, in physically active adults, ambulatory BP after HIIT sessions presented good reproducibility only in the awake period.
