The arterial Hypertension (HTA) is a one of the prevalentes pathologies in our greater adult population and a problem of public
health, being the exercise of aerobico type the one that has shown the most beneficial results like therapeutic tool. The objective
of this study is to evaluate the impact of a submaximum program of exercises aeróbico on the tensional numbers, in a sample of
hypertense greater adults. Method: randomizado clinical test controlled simple blind person. 18 patients in the taken part group
(GE) and 19 patients in the group enter 39 volunteers being control (GC). GE enters to a protocol of aerobicos exercises of 10
weeks. The GC continues with a habitual program. Measurements of arterial pressure took place in the beginning (PA) and at the
end of the program in both groups. Results: in the analysis pre and post test of the numbers of PA of each group separately, only
the GE obtained one differentiates statistically significant (p<05). The analysis comparative ng of both groups does not throw
statistically significant results. Nevertheless, the analysis of the confidence intervals obtains a statistically significant difference
between both groups. Conclusions: The results of this study would reinforce the fact that the exercise is an effective and safe
helping tool in the treatment of the HTA in greater adults.
