My doctor says my blood pressure is too high and that I should exercise to
lose weight. Which exercises are the best to help me lower my blood
pressure?
..............................................................................
 Eugene
Thong: Your doctor's advice on losing weight is spot on; as you lower
your levels of body fat, your blood pressure should decrease.
Additionally, the exercise itself is also beneficial for
lowering blood pressure by suppressing the excitability of your central
nervous system, causing your body to release stress hormones in smaller
quantities.
As far as the best exercises go, performing exercises that
provide cardiovascular benefit, i.e., make your breathing labored while
performing them, is most beneficial.
If you've never exercised before, it's a good idea to start
out slowly by walking 30 minutes a day, progressing to other forms of low-
impact cardiovascular benefits of the circuit as well as the muscular
benefits of the strength training.
There are tons of places on the web where
you can find the real deal on weight loss and fat-burning (like this
site you’re currently reading *ahem). Want an easy,

What do you think of that diet where you eat certain foods based on your blood
type?
I’ve always been told to get a six- pack you need to do a lot of abs
work with high reps. Would you agree?
Do I need supplements to lose weight?
Is it possible to lose weight and gain muscle at the same time?
I’ve got fat located in
the area of my body where my arm meets my shoulder, and I can’t get rid
of it. Are there any exercises in particular that would help improve
that? Or what about any spot reducing supplements?
I know I should be having
some protein and carbs after a weights workout, but what about after
cardio? I've heard that you should wait 2 hours before eating.
You mentioned the benefits of scheduling a "cheat meal" into your eating
program at least once per week. Is there a best time to eat a cheat
meal?
Should I be counting my grams of fat, sugar, and calories?
What can I do to flatten my lower abs? I've been
doing crunches and hanging leg raises for the last year, but nothing
seems to help.
