Purpose: 12 weekbrisk walking exercise intervention at 50%-70% intensity was carried out in the study to examine the mean reduction on systolic and diastolic blood pressures of middle-aged mild-hypertensive population in Asaba, Nigeria. Methodology: The study comprised of 42 male and female middle-aged (36-45years) individuals who recorded mild-hypertension. A control group-pre-test and post-test experimental design was used to randomly assign the individuals into treatment and control groups. Whereas, arithmetic mean and standard deviation were used to analyze the data according to the difference in mean scores. Conclusion: In conclusion, 12-week brisk walking intervention showed a mean reduction on systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) of middle-aged mildhypertensive population. Precisely, the experiment indicated that those who did not partake in the exercise intervention (control group) showed an increase on SBP and a decrease on DBP and thereby indicating a relatively higher mean reduction of 12-week brisk-walking exercise on SBP of middle-aged mild-hypertensive population. Recommendations: The study recommended that 50% -70% intensity of 12-week brisk-walking exercise may likely present a therapeutic intervention for people with mild-hypertension.
