"New Study Reveals Effective Exercises for Lowering Blood Pressure"

A new study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine suggests that isometric exercises, such as wall sits and planks, are the most effective way to lower blood pressure, especially for individuals with hypertension. While traditional cardio and strength training exercises also help reduce blood pressure, isometric exercises that involve contracting muscles without movement have shown the greatest impact. The researchers theorize that isometric exercises may cause blood vessels to compress and then widen, improving blood flow. Adding a quick isometric routine, such as four two-minute wall sits, to a workout regimen may be beneficial for individuals concerned about high blood pressure.
