This paper aims to analyze the effects of moderate intermittent exercise in institutionalized older adults and its relationship with blood pressure. It is an investigation where the impact of sporadic exercises on blood pressure values over time was evaluated. A total of 29 older adults were analyzed to whom moderate intermittent exercises were applied for 4 weeks, 3 times a week for 30 minutes each session, with 12 interventions. Because blood pressure is an indicator that changes over time during the course of the day and its measurement is not precise, we use single-valued neutrosophic sets as data instead of numerical values. Neutrosophic Statistics techniques were applied to these data. This is a branch of statistics and neutrosophy where the methods of classical statistics are extended to data or parameters in interval form, or in the case of samples or populations whose exact size is not known. Specifically, we use neutrosophic correlation methods applied to neutrosophic data. Although this is not interval data, it could also be considered part of the Neutrosophic Statistics because it is not crisp data.
