Since being diagnosed with high blood pressure, I have dropped from 240/120 to 130/67 (approximately). My pulse has dropped from 90+ to about 43BPM (at rest)).
I am still looking to lower my systolic to less ...
Hi,

I have been working on lowering my blood pressure for about 7 years now (fairly successfully). My wife and I work out about every other day. I have dropped about 20 lbs so far, and my overall health seems to be fairly good.
Since being diagnosed with high blood pressure, I have dropped from 240/120 to 130/67 (approximately). My pulse has dropped from 90+ to about 43BPM (at rest)).
I am still looking to lower my systolic to less than 120. The Dr. says that may not be possible, but I am trying anyway.
I'll try to post more later, but for now it's off to the "dreadmill" ;-)

We can reverse years of damage to our bodies by deciding to raise our standards for ourselves, then living differently. Old wounds heal, injuries repair, and the whole system improves with just a few changes in what we put into our bodies and how we move them.
