Objective: The objective of the study was to analyze and compare the cardiovascular responses of a single beach tennis (BT) session in middle-aged women with normal pressure (NTN) and hypertension (HTN). Methods: The sample consisted of 26 women (13 NTN and 13 HTN; ≈ 47 ± 7 years) that were submitted to a BT session composed of 5-min warm-up, followed by 3 matches of 12-min with 2-min intervals between them. All matches were played in a regular BT court and rules. The blood pressure (BP) and heart rate were assessed before (Pre), during the session (immediately after each match), and after the session for 30-min. Results: For heart rate, there was no difference between the groups at any of the moments evaluated (p > 0.050). Compared to baseline, systolic BP in NTN increased following the first (23mmHg, p < 0.001), second (23mmHg, p < 0.001), and third matches (14mmHg, p = 0.013). In contrast, HTN experienced a systolic BP increase only after the first match (19mmHg, p = 0.009). After exercise, in NTN, systolic BP decreased at post-30’ (-11mmHg, p = 0.025). In HTN, systolic BP decreased both at post-15’ (-19mmHg, p < 0.001) and post-30’ (-19mmHg, p < 0.001). When comparing delta values between groups at each recovery point, HTN exhibited lower systolic BP than NTN at both post-15’ (-16mmHg, p < 0.001) and post-30’ (-9mmHg, p = 0.046). Conclusion: In conclusion, during exercise, HTN and NTN women exhibited a increase in cardiovascular demand compared to pre-session values. Furthermore, a single BT session acutely reduces BP in HTN and NTN women, with a greater reduction observed in HTN.
