Effects of a 10-Week Zumba Program in Adults With Hypertension

Effects of a 10-Week Zumba-Based Exercise Program on Blood Pressure, Medication Control, Body Composition, and Psychological Outcomes in Adults With Hypertension

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 30 Jul 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study aims to evaluate the effects of a 10-week Zumba-based exercise program performed three times per week on blood pressure in adults with hypertension. In addition to the primary outcome of blood pressure, secondary outcomes including medication control, body composition (body weight, body fat percentage, and muscle mass), and psychological outcomes (anxiety, depression, quality of life, emotional well-being, and sleep quality) will be assessed. Participants will be assigned to either an intervention group, performing the Zumba program, or a control group maintaining their usual lifestyle. Measurements will be conducted at baseline and after the intervention period to determine the effectiveness of the program.
