5.4 EFFECT OF ACUTE RESISTANCE EXERCISE ON ARTERIAL HEMODYNAMICS AND CEREBRAL BLOOD FLOW DYNAMICS: DOES SEX MATTER?
High-intensity resistance exercise (RE) acutely increases arterial stiffness and blood pressure (BP), coupled with reduced cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFv) and greater flow pulsatility in the cerebral circulation, which may be detrimental to cerebral microvasculature. Because females have differe...
