The most important reason being the assessment of efficacy and safety of exercise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">It is understood through many research studies that monitoring blood pressure during exercise can provide clinical information that can help in identifying chronic <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthworldbt.com\/10-health-benefits-of-avocados\/\">health risks<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">However, inaccuracy of blood pressure measurement can lead to severe consequences of prehypertension. It is advisable to rest for at least 3-5 minutes after exercising for blood pressure measurement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is Blood Pressure?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), blood pressure is a pressure that pushes blood against the walls of arteries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">These arteries carry the blood from the heart to other parts of the body. There are two types for the measurement of blood pressure called systolic and diastolic blood pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Systolic Blood Pressure<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">When your heart beats, it creates pressure on the walls of your arteries called systolic blood pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">For example, your doctor writes 120\/80 mmHg as your blood pressure reading. Now, the upper level with 120 is the systolic blood pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Diastolic Blood Pressure<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">It is a measure of pressure on the walls of your arteries when your heart rests between the two heartbeats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">For example, your doctor gives you 120\/80 mmHg as your blood pressure reading. You can understand that the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthworldbt.com\/5-simple-ways-to-lower-cholesterol-levels\/\">lower level<\/a> with 80 is the diastolic blood pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is normal blood pressure?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">To consider normal, a person should have a systolic blood pressure of less than 120 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure less than 80 mmHg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Blood pressure above 140\/90 mmHg indicates that the person has hypertension and reading between 120\/80 mmHg to 139\/89 mmHg indicates prehypertension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">If you have high blood pressure during exercise, you can take steps to keep your blood pressure in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthworldbt.com\/healthy-foods-for-a-balanced-diet\/\">healthy zone like eating healthy diets<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthworldbt.com\/10-healthy-foods-to-lose-weight\/\">maintaining healthy body weight<\/a>, being physically active, limiting alcohol consumption, avoid smoking, and getting enough sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">These simple and effective steps can you in achieving normal blood pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Normal blood pressure by age<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Blood pressure is produced by the contraction of heart muscles and record by two numbers called systolic and diastolic blood pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">The table below shows the normal blood pressure reading according to their age for both men and female.
