Resting blood pressure for a male (optimum) is 120/70. It will be elevated after exercise or a stressful event.
High blood pressure is defined as consistentently elevated blood pressure exceeding 140 over 90 mmHg -- a systolic pressure above 140 with a diastolic pressure above 90.YOur systolic is somewhat elevated,but not high enough to be overly concerned about.
Yes, systolic pressure typically increases with exercise. This is because physical activity requires the heart to pump more blood to deliver oxygen and nutrients to the muscles, leading to a temporary rise in systolic blood pressure.
During exercise, the typical response of systolic blood pressure is to increase. This is because the heart pumps harder and faster to supply more oxygen and nutrients to the muscles.
The upper Blood Pressure Number is the Systolic, Which is the force of blood in your arteries when you heart beats.
During exercise, systolic blood pressure typically increases due to the increased demand for oxygen by the muscles. Diastolic blood pressure may either stay the same or slightly decrease, as the blood vessels dilate to allow more blood flow to the muscles.
During exercise, the normal blood pressure response is an increase in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure. This is a natural response to the body's increased demand for oxygen and nutrients during physical activity.
Some evidence suggests that pulse pressure is a better predictor of clinical outcome than the systolic or diastolic blood pressure alone. However, using pulse pressure as a clinical predictor or diagnosis tool is complicated because the pulse pressure doesn't provide unique information. Pulse pressure must be calculated from the systolic and diastolic readings. So, saying that someone has an "elevated pulse pressure" is usually the same as saying that they have an "elevated systolic blood pressure," which is already known to be an important clinical finding requiring treatment.
The systolic pressure is always stated first and the diastolic pressure second. For example: 122/76 (122 over 76); systolic = 122, diastolic = 76. Blood pressure of less than 140 over 90 is considered a normal reading for adults. A systolic pressure of 130 to 139 or a diastolic pressure of 85 to 89 needs to be watched carefully. A blood pressure reading equal to or greater than 140 (systolic) over 90 (diastolic) is considered elevated (high).
Yes, blood pressure is a measure of the pressure exerted on your arterial walls as the heart pumps blood throughout the body (systolic) over the pressure when your heart is relaxed (diastolic).
Regular exercise has been shown to have a positive effect on blood pressure levels by helping to lower both systolic and diastolic blood pressure readings. This is because exercise strengthens the heart, improves blood circulation, and helps to maintain a healthy weight, all of which contribute to better blood pressure control.
