What can result from excercising with high blood pressure?
March 16th, 2008 | by admin |Cleetus asked:
A year ago i was working out for 1 1/2 hours and running 3 miles a day at a maximum pace. I suffered a back injury, and havent worked out for about 10 months really. I gained about 30lbs, and my blood pressure has gone up a lot. I want to work out as hard as I can because I dont like easy workouts, but is it safe with high blood pressure? Can I hurt myself?

Yes take your time, and move up to a harder workout. Don’t start out with a harder one, start off slow, and then move your way up.

Get a heart rate monitor and work out with it. Don’t push yourself past 160, if you are female. You don’t want to push yourself and then quit anyway. Besides, if you work out too hard, you are only burning off sugar, your energy, you want to burn off your fat.
