title: [Blood pressure variation in relation to distinct physical activity levels in young people and adults].
abstract: In order to prove the existence of a relationship between the degree of physical activity and blood pressure, we studied 200 persons divided in two groups (first group less than 30 years old; second group greater than 30 years old), evaluating the habitual physical activity, stratifying them into different categories according to this activity. We did not find any significant statistical differences between the blood pressure and the various physical activity categories. However, there were statistically significant differences in the same group related to sex and age. Our results suggest that physical activity is not clearly related to blood despite the fact that these are both considered cardiovascular disease risk factors.
