Abstract

Introduction: About 7% of world populations are suffered from diabetes disease and its widespread complications. There are several studies about the beneficial effects of aerobic and resistance exercises on blood pressure and heart rate parameters in type 2 diabetic patients. Although, eccentric exercise may improve stroke volume, cardiac output and oxygen consumption and reduces the load on the cardiovascular system, there is no study to investigate the effects of eccentric exercise on these parameters in these patients. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of eccentric and concentric exercises on blood pressure and heart rate parameters in type 2 of diabetic patients. Materials and Methods: 28 type 2 diabetic patients were assigned randomly in one of the two experimental eccentric and concentric groups (7 male and 7 female in each group) using treadmill for 8 weeks (3 session per week). Before and after intervention, systolic and diastolic blood pressures and heart rate were measured. Results: The data shows that heart rate and blood pressure may significantly reduce by botheccentric (P
