Introduction: It is established that continuous aerobic training reduces post-exercise blood pressure, known as hypotension post-exercise. Traditional ergometers such as treadmills and cycle ergometers are commonly used as resources for training. However, they are expensive and this limits access to the general population. An alternative is to use elastic resistance running. However, it is not known whether the application of a high-intensity interval training session, with elastic resistance, presents favorable post-exercise acute hemodynamic responses. Objective: To describe and compare the hemodynamic responses in the recovery of an interval training session performed on the treadmill and with elastic resistance performed at the same intensity. Methods: Four healthy adults (24.25 ± 2.75 years old) performed a session of high-intensity interval training on a treadmill and another session with elastic resistance at 85% of VO2max, with an interval of one week between them and a control situation. Before and after the sessions, hemodynamic variables were monitored for 60 minutes: systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, stroke volume, cardiac output, and peripheral vascular resistance monitored by infrared photoplethysmography (Finometer). Results: Interval training with elastic resistance decreased systolic blood pressure and peripheral vascular resistance concerning the control day. Comparing the protocols, only elastic resistance caused post-exercise hypotension (p < 0.05), for up to 40 minutes. Conclusion: The protocol with elastic resistance promoted post-exercise hypotension for SBP and reduced peripheral vascular resistance.
