High Blood Pressure? Action Required?

Nice to know I’m the go-to source/poster boy for crappy health issues. :roll_eyes::confounded: At least I’m winning at something!

I believe that # is ‘high normal’ and may not be a problem with training. I’ve got ‘low normal’ resting BP but ‘Ding Dong, Death is Here’ level exercise BP.

As others have said, dr office BP is often recorded high, so check it at home. I’d also say check it on the bike too (“normal” SYS can be 160-200+); it can be a bit tricky and it won’t be precise, but all you’re after is a general snapshot to establish a trend.
