2. Your blood pressure is high
You should really take your high blood pressure more seriously, especially because it can cause many unwanted problems for your heart. According to the Mayo Clinic, “The higher your blood pressure and the longer it goes uncontrolled, the greater the damage.”
Boosting your heart’s strength is probably the best way to keep your blood pressure under control and, as you might have guessed, that’s exactly what movement does.
“Becoming more active can lower your systolic blood pressure—the top number in a blood pressure reading,” says the Mayo Clinic. By simply adding only 30 minutes of exercise to your daily routine, you may be able to stay away from blood pressure medications and lower your reading on your own.
