Mechanisms and clinical implications of post-exercise hypotension in humans.
Post-exercise hypotension is common after moderate-intensity dynamic exercise. It results from persistent reductions in vascular resistance mediated by the autonomic nervous system and vasodilator substances. These  effects appear more pronounced and last longer in hypertensive individuals. Post-exercise hypotension may also play an important role in plasma volume recovery after exercise.
