Abstract

Abstract: The prevalence of the elderly in Indonesia in 2020 is predicted to be more than 28 million people in the next two years. The elderly group is prone to the occurrence of high blood pressure. Increased blood pressure is a problem that can occur in the event of ageing process. Blood pressure and pulse can be controlled through healthy lifestyle changes, such as exercising. Based on this presentation, the researcher is interested in finding out whether there is an effect of low-impact aerobic exercise on blood pressure and pulse rate in the elderly. This research method is a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest design. The design in this study was that there was only one group of interventions, or those who were given treatment. The measuring instrument used to measure is a sphygmanometer. In the Wilcoxon test, systolic blood pressure was found to have a p value of 0.005, diastolic blood pressure was found to have a p value of 0.010, and pulse was found to have a p value of 0.000. In the Wilcoxon test, it is said to have an effect if the p-value: 0.05.  It can be concluded that low-impact aerobic exercise can lower systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure, and can raise the pulse rate of the elderly
