Running helps reduce blood pressure, but we can also do some other simple exercises to improve this condition

Squat against the wall

Stand with your back against the wall, your feet shoulder-width apart. Slowly step your legs forward, then slowly squat down along the wall, keeping the angle between your thighs and calves from 90 to 120 degrees, as if you were sitting in a chair.

horse pose

Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, keep a low center of attention and squat, adjust the height of your squat according to your physical condition, ideally squat in a corner. Place your palms firmly across your waist, bend your elbows back, palms facing up and looking straight forward.

Plank exercises

Lie face down on the floor with your elbows directly under your shoulders, the front wall is close to the floor, your toes touch the ground. Tighten your glutes and abdominal muscles, use force to lift yourself off the ground, keep your body straight throughout the movement, without bending your back or lower back.

It is recommended to hold each pose for 45 seconds, then rest for 15 seconds. If you have not reached this level, you can reduce the time appropriately and gradually increase the time when the body has adapted.

The exercises mentioned above are suitable for people with low blood pressure. If your blood pressure is above 160/100 mmHg, you should stop exercising until your blood pressure drops.

High blood pressure often has no obvious symptoms in the early stages, but that does not mean it is harmless to the body. It is important to have the right attitude and seek timely treatment if you notice high blood pressure.
