The effects of supervised mild aerobic exercise at the work load of the blood lactate threshold for 10 weeks on serum lipids and apolipoproteins were studied in 24 patients with essential hypertension. Significant reduction in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure and increased maximal oxygen uptake were observed in both men and women. The high density lipoprotein cholesterol increased significantly following mild aerobic exercise in women. Apolipoprotein A-II was significantly elevated at the 4th week in women. No significant differences in total cholesterol, triglyceride, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, apolipoproteins A-I, C-II, C-III, B and E were observed in either men or women following an exercise program. These data demonstrate the different effect of mild aerobic exercise therapy on high density lipoprotein in hypertensive men and women.
