Description

[Purpose] We analyzed the relationships among the Borg scale, double product (DP), heart rate (HR) and systolic blood pressure (SBP) at 60%, 70% and 80% maximum heart rate (HRmax) induced by repeated standing exercise. [Subjects] The subjects were 18 healthy adults (average age of 27.0 years, 10 men and 8 women). [Method] After 5 min rest in the sitting position, subjects performed repeated standing exercise to achieve heart rates of 60%, 70% and 80% HRmax. HR, DP and SBP were measured. [Results] A significant relationship was found between the Borg scale and DP at all of the heart rates, but no significant relationship was found between HR and the Borg scale. [Conclusion] We discovered that in repeated standing exercise, the Borg scale and HR are not necessarily in agreement. The results suggest that, when conducting repeated standing exercise, rather than undertaking risk management using the relationship between the Borg scale and HR alone, it is necessary to follow the changes in DP for the risk management of exercise therapy.<br>
