Cardiovascular diseases are the leading causes of death and postmenopausal women. Physical exercise, in turn, is a strategy to reduce cardiovascular stress, by decreasing the blood pressure (BP) at rest and several risk factors associated with sedentary lifestyle, thus improving the quality and life expectancy of these women. However, different classes of antihypertensives may have different responses when associated with exercise. Thus, this study aims to compare the responses of the association of 12 weeks of aerobic exercise and weightlifting with different classes of medications in 45 postmenopausal hypertensive women. The volunteers will do cardiovascular and biochemistry evaluations before and after the intervention.
