Dynamic exercise raises blood pressure and isometric exercise raises blood pressure a lot.
Despite this, there is good evidence that people who take regular exercise are healthier and have lower blood pressures than those who take none.
There is evidence that regular exercise decreases coronary heart disease in normotensive and hypertensive people.
This may be partly because they are thinner and tend to have more sensible dietary, drinking and smoking habits.
Recently, a study of the affects of different levels of exercise lowers blood pressure independently from any other dietary manoeuvres.
