Why is there no increase in diastolic pressure after exercise?

Diastole is a stage in which the heart is completely relaxed in order for blood to pour into the heart's atria (upper chambers). Although the rate at which the blood enters the heart increases (causing a slight increase in pressure), there is no contraction for the pressure to increase drastically.

What is the relationship between heart rate and blood pressure during exercise?

During exercise, heart rate and blood pressure typically increase. This is because the heart needs to pump more blood to deliver oxygen and nutrients to the muscles. The increase in heart rate helps to increase blood flow, which in turn raises blood pressure. This relationship is a normal response to the body's increased demand for oxygen and energy during physical activity.
