This study
reports the effects of yoga training on cardiovascular response to
exercise and the time course of recovery after the exercise.
Cardiovascular response to exercise was determined by Harvard step test
using a platform of 45 cm height. The subjects were asked to step up and
down the platform at a rate of 30/min for a total duration of 5 min or
until fatigue, whichever was earlier. Heart rate (HR) and blood pressure
response to exercise were measured in supine position before exercise and
at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7 and 10 minutes after the exercise. Rate-pressure
product [RPP = (HR x SP)/100] and double product (Do P = HR x MP), which
are indices of work done by the heart were also calculated. Exercise
produced a significant increase in HR, systolic pressure, RPP & DoP and a
significant decrease in diastolic pressure. After two months of yoga
training, exercise-induced changes in these parameters were significantly
reduced. It is concluded that after yoga training a given level of
exercise leads to a milder cardiovascular response, suggesting better
exercise tolerance.
