Name Time Method cardiovascular response - At rest, during the resistance exercise protocol as well as during the recovery period, HR was continuously monitored (Polar model RS 800, Polar Electro Inc., Kempele, Finland). Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were also measured using a calibrated oscilometric automatic device (OMROM MIT elite plus, OMROM Health Care Inc, Illinois, USA). [at rest, peak exercise and recovery ( 5 minutos after exercise protocol)]
