You know...with all the warnings for us folks with health issues, If i listened to them all I would NEVER EXERCISE! I have a stent, atherosclerosis, a thoracic ascending aortic aneurysm at 4cm and osteoarthritis in my shoulders, hips and spine. Had the shoulders re-done already. The only thing I avoid is contact sports and lifting heavy weights over 40 lbs. I still walk, cycle, do yoga, bodyweight training and 20lbs dumbbells. I just don't push as hard as I did my whole life. I used to train like a mad man. Not anymore.

Found that out the hard way yesterday. Went for a 10 min jog and it shot my BP up to 144/94 pulse 122 for an hour and a half. Had to take my wife's BP pill to bring it down. Haven't jogged in 2 years but jump rope for 30 min 4 times a week with some weightlifting. At age 39, my mind thinks it could but my body is saying otherwise.

Oh, wow! This is a very important video. I'm very glad you've addressed this matter. I don't have high blood pressure myself - I don't even remember the last time it went above 130/85. Normally, it's 90 to 120 over 70 to 80. However, and perhaps weirdly, my pulse is always high. Even sitting down, it's always in the high 80s, even 90s sometimes. High intensity exercise, like burpees or even very fast walking, will push my heart rate very quickly above 140 or even above 150 (my max HR is 160). I think that's just as bad as hypertension(?). So, I'll follow your guidelines here. Anyway, at this time, I can only do walking and step ups.
@ExerciseForHealth2 жыл бұрын
Some people have naturally higher heart rates (80 to 100bpm at rest), so I wouldn't look too much into this. The 220 - your age to get your maximum heart rate is theoretical, and I've had clients in their 40's get their heart rate over 200bpm during cardio exercise with no issues. Just go with how you feel while exercising.

I just commented on someone else’s condition but your comment caught my attention because of how similar it sounds to mine with the quick fluctuation of heart rate even though your blood pressure is pretty normal. 90 is low though. I’m no doctor so take my advice with a grain of salt. But if you feel like crap, read up on a condition called POTS. More and more people are starting to get it and not just women. You have to take a tilt table test to get any kind of diagnosis regarding that though and even then it left me wondering if that was even the correct diagnosis.

Richard your videos are a godsend for me. Thanks for focusing on a large population having fluctuations in blood pressure but who are addicted to lifting. I have a query. I have found that when I do more than four different weight lifting exercises in a session, I get palpitations at night, with a slight headache. My blood pressure increases slightly. But when I sleep or rest after a weightlifting session for an hour or two I feel back-to normal and invigorated. But if I rush to office after a workout, the symptom persists. Why does this happen?
@ExerciseForHealth4 ай бұрын
There could be a number of factors causing this, such as dehydration, an overactive sympathetic nervous system, medications and many more so it's difficult to say. It's probably worth speaking to your doctor to see what they suggest. Also, try and ensure you do a thorough steady cool down after your weights (light cardio/ cycle/ walk etc) for at least 6-8 minutes, to help the heart rate/ blood pressure normalise.

@ExerciseForHealth2 жыл бұрын
Yes, definitely don't stop exercising and you can continue to weight train, even if it means making some small adaptations. Exercise can be considered a form of medication when it comes to blood pressure, meaning that it won't cure it but it can help you manage it. However, if you are younger (under 50), it could be that your higher blood pressure may return to normal readings again in the future (I've seen this happen to me and others in their 30's).

That might be relating to CABG surgery following a heart attack. If someone has had open heart surgery after being diagnosed with coronary heart disease, then the scarring from the surgery can cause problems during pectoral based movements (press ups/ bench press etc). Also, in cardiac rehab, we would do a standing version (wall press up) to avoid an increase in the venous return back to the heart. However, if one only has high blood pressure and no heart disease, then press ups are not contraindicated.

But will your heart be able to get stronger if you're on a betablocker which limits its ability to beat harder?

Yes, you're still exercising the heart even though a beta blocker is suppressing the BP and HR, so cardiovascular fitness gains are still possible.
