[Purpose] In the present study, we investigated the effects of regular aerobic training with different intensities and durations on new indices of arterial stiffness measured via an upper-arm oscillometric device. [Participants and Methods] We gathered data from 41 middle-aged and older people (age 65.0 ± 11.7 years). Participants were randomly divided into five groups: (1) 15 minutes of low intensity aerobic training (n=10); (2) 30 minutes of low intensity training (n=7); (3) 15 minutes of moderate-intensity training (n=9); (4) 30 minutes of moderate-intensity training (n=8); and (5) a non-training group (n=7). Training was conducted for 8 weeks, three times per week. Arterial pulse wave index, arterial pressure-volume index, brachial-ankle and heart-brachial pulse wave velocity, cardio-ankle vascular index, brachial and ankle blood pressure, heart rate, and peak oxygen uptake were measured before and after the intervention. [Results] All indicators of arterial stiffness and brachial and ankle blood pressure in the exercise groups were significantly lower after versus before the intervention. Peak oxygen uptake did not differ before versus after the intervention. [Conclusion] The present findings indicate that regular aerobic exercise may be important in reducing arterial stiffness regardless of the intensity or duration of aerobic exercise.
