Protocol summary

Study aim
The effect of 12 weeks of resistance training and sour tea consumption on body composition variables (weight, waist-to-hip ratio, fat percentage, body mass index), hemodynamic markers (systolic and diastolic blood pressure) and biochemical markers (leptin and adiponectin) is associated with high blood pressure in elderly men.
Design
A clinical trial with a control group, with parallel groups, unblinded, randomized, in four groups: resistance training, sour tea, resistance training + sour tea, control. The research randomizer software (www.randomizer.com) will be used for randomization.
Settings and conduct
The subjects of the resistance training and resistance training+sour tea groups performed the resistance training protocol for 12 weeks (3 days per week). Also, the subjects of the sour tea and resistance exercises + sour tea group will consume sour tea 2 times a day (each time 2 grams in 240 ml of water) for 12 weeks. All sports exercises will be done in the sports club, and Other measurements, such as blood sampling, will be performed in the cardiology clinic under the supervision of a specialist doctor.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: male, over 65 years old, suffering from high blood pressure, using controlled blood pressure drugs. Complete the informed consent form. Exclusion: history of cardiovascular surgeries, including balloon surgery, known metabolic and inflammatory diseases, consumption of alcoholic beverages and cigarettes, use of beta blockers, and participation in regular sports activities in the six months leading up to the study.
Intervention groups
Four groups: resistance training, sour tea, resistance taining+ sour tea, control
Main outcome variables
Hemodynamic (systolic and diastolic blood pressure), body composition (weight, waist-to-hip ratio, fat percentage, body mass index), and biochemical (adiponectin and leptin) markers.
