One hour of exercise a week lowers blood pressure

High blood pressure is becoming more common

It takes only 60 to 90 minutes a week to significantly lower bloodpressure

A Japenese study shows that amount of exercise spread over a week reduced systolic blood pressure – the top number on a bloodpressure reading an average of 12 points and the lower or diastolic reading by 8 points

This study confirms the importance of exercise 60 – 90 minutes over the whole week. You cannot exercise enough to improve your health. Whether treadmill or slicing through a pool exercising in the morning is like drinking a cup of coffee. If you are a morning exerciser remember to warm up and stretch a few minutes

For some the best time for a workout is late in the afternoon

It is better to exercise some than not at all
