High intensity exercise in high BP
I take the medicine of high BP. I BP remained to be 140/90. But started brisk walking in the morning. But it was not possible all the time due some reason. So at home only I started spot jogging and push-ups . Also I do some exercises with dumbbell as I have at home.
Daily I do all these 45-50 minutes.
I want to know can I continue it ? Please suggest.
