Studies show that regular exercise maintains the elasticity of the arteries (and even in the elderly), which in turn helps to lower high blood pressure.
In people with a sedentary lifestyle, the risk of developing hypertension is 35% greater than that of athletes. However, hypertensive patients should not start training without consulting a doctor.
Accumulated data indicate that highly intensive training does not effectively reduce blood pressure as moderately intense. People who are predisposed to hypertension should not drink beverages containing caffeine before starting workouts.
And those who are predisposed to strokes, it is useful to remember that even a daily hour walk at a fast pace is enough to reduce the risk of stroke by 50%. However, the combination of walks with a set of exercises is more effective protection against this formidable disease.
