Effect of fixed 7.5 minutes' moderate intensity exercise bouts on body composition and blood pressure among sedentary adults with prehypertension in Western-Kenya.

ABSTRACT: Prehypertension is a modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease observed to affect an estimated 25-59% of global population and closely associated with body composition. Without appropriate interventions, one-third of individuals with prehypertension would develop full-blown hypertension within 4 years. The existing exercise recommendations need substitutes that appeal more yet accord similar or better outcomes in desire to halt this progression. This study evaluated the effect of Fixed 7.5-minute Moderate Intensity Exercise (F-7.5m-MIE) bouts on Body Composition and Blood Pressure (BP) among sedentary adults with prehypertension in Western-Kenya in a Randomized Control Trial (RCT) performed throughout the day compared to the single-continuous 30-60-minute bouts performed 3 to 5 tim
