Energy balance
Both high-intensity and low-intensity exercise training resulted in similar reductions in blood pressure.
Both high-intensity and low-intensity exercise can be effective for reducing blood pressure in obese adolescents.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
After the 6‐month intervention, systolic, diastolic and mean BP decreased (P < 0.05, for all) similarly in both groups.
Why this rating
Based on randomized trial design.
