Abstract

Introduction: Hypertension is known as a silent killer because it is often a cause of sudden death. Furthermore, many people today consume unhealthy, high-fat foods while lacking exercise. This accumulation of food leads to high cholesterol, which can trigger hypertension. To prevent and treat hypertension, exercise can be done by increasing physical activity and low-impact aerobic exercise to see if low-impact aerobic exercise has an effect on lowering blood pressure. Method: This study uses a pre-experimental design research design. This type of research is quantitative research. Using a one group pretest posttest approach. The researcher measured the respondents' blood pressure using a digital blood pressure monitor before and after low-impact aerobic exercise. The researcher recorded the results on an observation sheet. The respondents then performed low-impact aerobic exercise for 20 minutes. Low-impact aerobic exercise was performed three times a week for two weeks. Results: : The results of the Paired Sample T-Test obtained a p-value of 0.000 <α (0.05), indicating that systolic blood pressure decreased by 6.27 mmHg with a std. Deviation of 10,074, while diastolic blood pressure decreased by 8.8 mmHg with a std. Deviation of 6,997. Conclusions: There is an effect of low-impact aerobic exercise on reducing blood pressure in hypertension sufferers at the Sukomulyo Gresik Health Center. It is necessary to hold low impact aerobic exercise for hypertension sufferers in the Prolanis activities which are routinely carried out every week at the Sukomulyo Gresik Health Center.
