Regular aerobic exercise, particularly moderate-intensity activities like brisk walking, has been shown to effectively reduce blood pressure in individuals with hypertension. Exercise training can lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure, with reductions of approximately 5-7 mmHg observed after consistent practice. The benefits extend beyond resting blood pressure, as exercise reduces cardiovascular responses during physical activity and emotional stress. Additionally, exercise improves the overall quality of life in hypertensive patients. When combined with weight loss, exercise yields even more significant improvements in blood pressure control.
