Abstract
Background: The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone System (RAAS) is as important as any other hormone regulating agents that maintain the body's blood pressure and fluid balance. Physical exercise affects RAAS activity and its effects are therefore obvious on cardiovascular disease and hypertension. Objectives: To ascertain the effect of specific attributes of exercise, such as intensity, duration, and type, on RAAS activity and control of blood pressure, fluid balance, and cardiovascular well-being. Study design: A Cross-sectional-study
